An outrageous incident occurred at the Sacrifice of Liberty memorial within the Kaisariani Shooting Range shortly after eight historical photographs of the May 1, 1944, execution were published. Unknown perpetrators committed an act of vandalism against the Monument of the 200, demonstrating severe material damage with the broken marble plaques evidencing the attack. The local municipality has already placed protective tapes to restrict access to the damaged sections, highlighting the seriousness of the act against local historical memory.

The vandals specifically targeted the marble plaque detailing the heroic sacrifice of the 200 fighters, which resulted in significant damage. This act of vandalism coincided ominously with the release of rare visual material showcasing the heroes' stance against the execution squad, underlining a disrespect for their memory. The timing raises concerns about the preservation of historical narratives amid contemporary interpretations.

The Kaisariani Local Authority unequivocally condemned the incident, emphasizing that "historical memory does not fade, no matter how much it may disturb some." This statement reflects the ongoing discourse about the importance of memorializing historical events, particularly those with deep local significance, amid rising challenges to historical narratives. Such actions may provoke further discussions on how society remembers and honors its past.
