A number of tombstones in the old Jewish cemetery in Efringen in the province of Baden were desecrated by unknown vandals, police reported today. The desecrations followed an announcement by the Efringen local council that it was planning to place a tablet at the cemetery gate to commemorate the memory of the 6,000,000 European Jews murdered by the Nazis.
