A swastika was graffitied on the base of a statue of Rabbi Moses ben Maimon (Rambam) in Cordoba, Spain, sparking condemnation from local authorities and Jewish communities. The statue, located in the historic Jewish quarter, was defaced with a Nazi symbol, prompting calls for its immediate cleanup. Local politicians described the act as an attack on cultural heritage and a message of hate. The Cordoba municipality has ordered the removal of the graffiti and launched an investigation by the National Police. This incident follows previous acts of vandalism at heritage sites in the region, including the painting of Arabic letters on a Roman bridge and swastikas on a Christian monument.
