Warsaw, Poland: Polish prosecutors announced a probe Wednesday into a far-right lawmaker who doused a Hanukkah menorah in the parliament, a day after the incident drew harsh condemnation.

On Tuesday evening, Grzegorz Braun, a lawmaker with the ultra-nationalist Confederation party, used a fire extinguisher to put out the candelabrum lit in the parliamentary main hall.
