The wall bordering the Polish consulate in Lviv, western Ukraine, was vandalized with graffiti between Tuesday and Wednesday, according to Radio Poland.
Vandals threw red paint at the Polish consulate in Lviv, and painted graffiti reading "Our land" on the wall in front of the building, Ukrainian media reported on Wednesday, Radio Poland wrote.
The incident was confirmed by the Polish ambassador in Kyiv, Jan Pieklo, who said that whoever wrote the words must have been frightened off and left, since the sentence did not appear to be complete.
"The CCTV recordings showed two people," Pieklo said.
This is not the first such incident in Ukraine over recent months. In January, a monument dedicated to Poles murdered in 1944 in the village of Huta Pieniacka by the troops of the Ukrainian division of the SS Galicia was damaged.
