Argentina’s war cemetery in the Malvinas Islands has been vandalized, with the glass protecting a statue of the Virgin of Luján in the cemetery smashed by persons as yet unknown. The cemetery, located on the east island near Darwin, holds the remains of the 238 Argentine soldiers who died on the Islands during the 1982 South Atlantic conflict. The vandalization was discovered by family members visiting the cemetery, as such it is unclear when exactly it took place.
