All over the world, Jewish communities are concerned about the increase in anti-Semitic acts in the wake of the Hamas attack. This is particularly the case in Spain and the United Kingdom.
In London (UK), an empty table was set for the shabbatwith 220 seats for the more than 230 hostages held by the Hamas. Since October 7, and the attack on Israeli soil, time seems to stand still for the community Jewish Londoner. Many have relatives in Israel, and some are among the hostages.
Targeted community places in Spain
More than 400 anti-Semitic acts have been recorded this month, compared to 28 over the same period last year. An increase in anti-Semitic acts has also been reported in Spain, where representatives of the Jewish community have also expressed their concern. “What happened during the first eight or nine days of the conflict had not happened for years in our country”, alerts one of them. Several community places have been vandalized this month, such as the main synagogue in Madrid, or even a neighborhood in Barcelona.
