What happened

Summary

According to Українська правда, the Ukrainian embassy condemned inscriptions reading "Slava UPA" on monuments in Poland, calling them an attempt by Russia to sow hostility between Ukrainians and Poles. According to ТСН, the embassy in Warsaw described the incident as a provocation meant to worsen Ukrainian-Polish relations, and the outlet reports that a Russian provocation is suspected.

According to Wyborcza, the slogan appeared on two monuments in Warsaw: one beside a police station and the other a large memorial to the Warsaw Ghetto Heroes. The outlet describes these as the latest such acts of vandalism, and says a 17-year-old Ukrainian citizen was detained the day before.
