Jewish organizations have expressed dismay after authorities on Alderney, a small British Channel Island off the coast of Normandy, France, rejected a proposal for a Holocaust memorial plaque for the second time, the Jewish Chronicle reported. The application, submitted by three organizations, including the Committee for the Preservation of Jewish Cemeteries in Europe and JTrails, sought permission to install a plaque at Longis Common, a site associated with burials of forced laborers and other victims of the Nazi occupation during World War II.
