Edinburgh’s war memorial has not been vandalised in 2023, said the city’s council, despite online accounts sharing the aftermath of its vandalising in 2022 as if recent. Some accounts link the damage to pro-Palestinian demonstrations responding to the 2023 Israel-Hamas war. A war memorial in Rochdale, northern England, was defaced on Nov. 7. There were no records of reports of a 2023 incident at the site of the Edinburgh war memorial as of Nov. 9. Footage of Edinburgh’s war memorial having been set on fire are from 2022.
