A diplomatic standoff between Poland and Israel has escalated after the Polish ambassador to Israel was assaulted and spat on in Tel Aviv on Tuesday.
The two countries disagree over how to remember the Holocaust and whether the Polish government should pay reparations for former Jewish properties that were taken away by Nazi Germany and later nationalized under communism.

A 65-year-old Israeli man, Arik Lederman, has been arrested for allegedly targeting Marek Magierowski, the Polish ambassador, outside the embassy, the Times of Israel reported.
Magierowski said that he could hear the assailant shouting “Polish, Polish” who then began yelling and spitting on him. Police located the man after the ambassador took the picture of the man and his vehicle.
The incident prompted reaction among the highest levels of the Polish government, with Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki condemning the attack as “racist” and “xenophobic.”

I am very worried to hear of a racist attack on @PLinIsrael ambassador @mmagierowski. Poland strongly condemns this xenophobic act of aggression. Violence against diplomats or any other citizens should never be tolerated.
