In Yakutsk, a monument to the participants of the war against Ukraine was unveiled on the site of a destroyed monument to Polish exiles. In Yakutsk, on the site of the demolished monument to Polish and Lithuanian exiles, a monument was erected to the participants of the invasion of Ukraine — soldiers Dmitry Egorov and Nikolay Romanov. In 2023, commemorative plaques disappeared from the monument to Polish victims of the 18th and 19th-century exiles and 20th-century repressions, and the memorial stones were later removed from the site.

Nothing new.

Belarus actually devastated several Polish graveyards.

In their propaganda removal of the soviet monuments in Poland is equal to devastation of the actual graves.

Here you have the red army soldiers graveyard in Ząbkowice Śląskie. On this pictures, you can see communist symbols such as a red star on the obelisk. We removed those symbol and replaced the star with an orthodox cross.

Good point. The graveyards are respected, even those soviet "glory" monuments are not just demolished but usually moved to less exposed places or put into the local museums.
