The Soviet United Nations Mission was taunted by Jewish youth groups yesterday. The youngsters danced to Israeli tunes and sang Hebrew songs outside the building in a demonstration on behalf of Jewish youth in Leningrad whose Simhat Torah celebrations last month were suppressed by Soviet police.
Participants were high school and college students of Hashachar and Betar, Jewish youth movements. They also read aloud letters from Russian Jews that were purportedly smuggled out of the Soviet Union.
