Widows and children of 11 Israeli Olympic team members murdered during the 1972 Games in Munich unveiled a memorial to the victims at a tearful ceremony on Wednesday. The €2.3 million memorial entitled Einschnitt (Incision) on the grounds of Munich's Olympic Park features black-and-white photographs of the 11 Israeli victims and a West German police officer killed in a botched raid. Romano said a decades-long drive by family members to see a memorial built in Munich had long been met with "anti-Semitism and a lack of compassion". Following the ceremony, Rivlin and Steinmeier were to pay a visit to the memorial of the former Nazi concentration camp Dachau. READ ALSO: Munich remembers 1972 Olympic victims
