A year after the start of the Israel-Hamas war, vandals covered part of Denver’s City Park with “politically motivated” graffiti tied to the Middle Eastern conflict.
Denver Parks and Recreation crews were cleaning and covering up graffiti Monday morning at City Park, city officials said in an emailed statement to the Denver Post.
City officials said they weren’t sure when the graffiti happened, but they found out about it early Monday morning and immediately sent crews to clean it up.
“This seems to be an isolated incident,” officials stated. “The graffiti seemed politically motivated with mentions of Israel and Gaza.”
The markings — some of which read “Free Gaza,” “End Israeli Apartheid,” “End Aid to Israel” — were found sprayed across sidewalks, dumpsters and porta-potties, city officials said.
This is a developing story.
