It s been said that arriving in Kororāreka/Russell is a bit underwhelming, with nothing distinctive or special to the area to greet visitors, let alone to honour its long, rich Māori history. There s the sign by Matauwhi Bay, mostly overgrown, and nothing on the wharf except a lot of advertising, but that s about to change thanks to a bold new initiative that began with Kororāreka Marae, was picked up by the original wharf trust and then by its successor, the Russell Community Wharf Trust.

A monument erected as a sign of friendship between Israel and Armenia has been desecrated in Yerevan, Vestnik Kavkaza said, quoting social networking platforms.
Telegram distributes photographs of the memorial installed almost 12 years ago on the Armenia-Israel Friendship Alley in one of Yerevan s parks. Inscriptions on the memorial say Armenia-Israel Friendship Alley, 20.03.2009, Yerevan in Armenian and English. However, they are covered with bright red paint, the report added.
Earlier, a monument dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust was desecrated in central Yerevan.
Anti-Semitism and disrespect for Holocaust survivors is nothing new in Armenia.
