Approximately 50 Orthodox Jews protested what they claimed was a desecration of a Jewish cemetery in Vilnius at the Lithuanian Embassy in Tel Aviv on April 24.
"They held slogans and prayed," said Saulius Jaskelivicius, charge d'affairs at the embassy. "Two participants of the rally were allowed to enter the embassy and hand a petition. We pledged to forward it to relevant institutions in Lithuania."
