Lekkert Hirsh Davidovich (1879, Onushkis, Troksky Uyezd, Vilna Governorate — 1902, Vilna) — participant in the revolutionary movement, activist of the Bund.

At the end of the 1890s and beginning of the 1900s, Hirsh Lekkert conducted revolutionary propaganda among Jewish workers and artisans in Dvinsk, Kovno, Ekaterinoslav, and Vilna.

In 1900 he led an assault by several hundred Jewish workers on a police station on the outskirts of Vilna, aiming to free arrested comrades.

In 1902, acting on his own initiative, he wounded the Vilna governor, V. V. von Wahl, with revolver shots — the same governor who had ordered the violent dispersal of the May Day demonstration in Vilna, during which Cossacks beat about 30 participants (mostly Jews) with whips.

A military court sentenced Lekkert to death.

His memory was honored in the dramas by H. Leivick (1927) and K. Kushnirov (1929, Russian translation by E. T. Bagritsky, 1930), as well as in M. Rafes’s book A Story of the Tsar’s Whips (Moscow, 1922).

In 1922 a monument to Lekkert was erected in Minsk (not preserved).
