THIS WEEK'S GLOBAL ANTISEMITISM REPORT
This week, we continued to monitor antisemitism around the world while advocating for more actions to be made.
As Israel solemnly marked Yom HaShoah, the Jewish state’s national day of Holocaust remembrance, events across the globe this week served as a disturbing reminder of the persistent threat posed by antisemitic hatred eight decades after the Nazi genocide.
In Sweden, three large banners bearing swastikas were unfurled over a main highway outside the capital, Stockholm. The incident occurred on April 20, Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s birthday, a date that often sees neo-Nazi provocations across the globe.
At Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, Jewish students were harassed and denied access to parts of campus by protesters who had set up a new anti-Israel encampment.
A Florida State University student with a history of using neo-Nazi imagery on social media and online gaming platforms perpetrated a mass shooting at the Tallahassee school, killing two people and wounding six others.
At the Coachella Music Festival in Indio, California, the Irish hip hop trio Kneecap displayed obscene anti-Israel slogans above the stage during their performance.
Other antisemitic occurrences documented by the Antisemitism Research Center (ARC) by CAM this week included:
- New York City: Police arrested two men after they fired at visibly Jewish men in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood with a gel gun.
- Ukraine: An attacker threw a Molotov cocktail at a synagogue in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih.
- Nepal: A Norwegian man broke into and vandalized the Chabad House in Kathmandu.
This week, physical violence/threats and vandalism comprised 25.2% (just over 1 in 4) of incidents recorded – an increase from 17.6% last week and 14.1% the week prior.
