Anti-Jewish Attacks on the Rise in Britain During Israel-Gaza Offensive
As violent attacks against Jewish communities and businesses continue in Europe, antisemitic incidents are also on the rise in Britain, according to new figures.
Up to 70 hate attacks have been reported in the UK since July 8th, coinciding with the start of Israel’s offensive in the Gaza Strip, according to monitoring body the Community Security Trust (CST).
While Saturday’s Free Gaza march in London passed off without much violent disturbance apart from isolated offensive placards and a banner, the CST said it expected more anti-Semitic incidents to be reported from the weekend.
