Poland Protests Israeli Site's 'Holocaust Revisionist' Label
Imagine Poland just elected a new leader named Karol.
A news website in Israel wrote an article about him, calling him a 'Holocaust revisionist'.
This means the website thinks Karol doesn't agree with how the Holocaust is remembered.
Poland's government was not happy and sent a letter to the website.
They asked the website to stop using that term, because it causes problems in Poland.
The website's article criticized Karol's ideas about historians investigating the Holocaust.
Karol is a historian himself and has led historical organizations.

Nawrocki narrowly won the presidential election.
The protest letter requested The Times of Israel refrain from using such terms.
