The daily newspaper “Anafartalar” of Canakkale published today a frontpage editorial apologizing to the Jewish community of this city.
Some months ago the newspaper published two violently anti-Semitic editorials, after which Jewish community leaders appealed to the public prosecutor for protection. The prosecutor, on a complaint signed by Jewish community leaders, began a libel action against the newspaper which ended with the public apology.
