FRENCH President Emmanuel Macron has condemned as “unspeakable” Holocaust-denying graffiti daubed on a memorial to one of the country’s worst Nazi atrocities.
Officials in the village of Oradour-sur-Glane near Limoges in central France discovered the word “lie” scrawled on the wall at the entrance to the Centre for Remembrance on Friday.
At least 642 residents were massacred there by Nazi troops on June 10 1944, four days after the D-Day landings.
