Veterans groups voiced disappointment after vandals defaced a World War I monument in New York City on Monday during an anti-Israel protest.
When a group converged on Central Park, they came upon the 107th United States Infantry monument, which was defaced with pro-Palestinian stickers. Protesters also sprayed-painted "Free Gaza" and burned an American flag at the site. Louis Casiano is a reporter for Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to louis.casiano@fox.com.
The bronze statue depicts seven soldiers from the U.S. Army 107th Infantry of the Seventh Regiment in the throes of battle as they burst through the Hindenburg Line — the last and strongest of the German army's defense — in September 1918.
