Anti-Semitic Flier in Eastern Ukraine Denounced as Provocation

HeadlineApr 18, 2014

Masked men in Donetsk reportedly handed out fliers to Jewish people this week calling for them to register and pay a fee of $50. While the leaflets purported to be from a pro-Russian leader, the group has denied any involvement. Secretary of State John Kerry condemned the fliers.

Secretary of State John Kerry: “In the year 2014, after all of the miles traveled and all of the journey of history, this is not just intolerable, it’s grotesque. It is beyond unacceptable.”

The pro-Russian separatists have denounced the fliers as a provocation, and the supposed order has not been enforced.
