"The annual #Jewish #pilgrimage to the 26-century-old #ElGhriba #Synagogue in #Tunisia drew a modest but notable return of international visitors this year, worshipping together under tight security after a deadly 2023 attack disrupted the festival.

Visitors came from #France, #China, #IvoryCoast and #Italy, including France’s ambassador to Tunisia, a symbolic gesture after two #French citizens were among those killed in the 2023 attack. A national guardsman shot and killed five people at the El-Ghriba synagogue soon after the festival that year, spreading fear among the local Jewish population and international #pilgrims."

Foreign visitors return to Jewish pilgrimage in Tunisia under tight security

Participants said about 500 people have attended this year’s pilgrimage, held on the Mediterranean island of Djerba, to celebrate the Lag B’Omer Jewish holiday. Jews have lived in Tunisia since Roman times and the pilgrimage remains central to the country’s small but long-standing Jewish community.

"#Swastikas and #Hitler #graffiti were spray-painted on a #synagogue, a #Jewish center, homes, and a vehicle in #NewYorkCity, by at least four people still at large.

Congregation #MachaneChodosh in #ForestHills was the synagogue that was spray-painted, which #Rabbi #YossiMendelson told the #NewYork Post on Monday was “very upsetting.”

"The rabbi who founded our synagogue was himself a #German refugee and dedicated the synagogue to the memory of the synagogues that were destroyed in #Germany and the #Jews who were murdered for being Jewish,” #Mendelson said."

Friday too... but only "alleged" 

"Members of the #Jewish community have been urged to “remain calm” after an #arson attack on a business in north #London, which police acknowledged had “similarities” with other recent attacks on a nearby #synagogue and a Jewish #ambulance #charity.

The Metropolitan Police said that a man was seen to approach a row of shops in #Hendon with a plastic bag containing three bottles of liquid on Friday evening. He tried to set the items in the bag alight, but when the bottles failed to fully ignite, he fled the scene, police said.

The alleged attack was claimed online by individuals purporting to be from the group Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiyah (HAYI), who said they were targeting Jewish education charity #JewishFutures."

Eyes wide open.

"An attempted #arson attack has been reported at a north-west #London #synagogue, after a spate of similar incidents.

The incident at #Kenton United Synagogue in #Harrow on Saturday night caused minor smoke damage to an internal room but no injuries or significant structural damage, according to the #CommunitySecurityTrust, which monitors #antisemitism and provides protection for #Jewish communities in the #UK.

The building is close to a school and children’s playground.

Police were seen searching a black SUV nearby on Sunday morning. A large cordon was in place and a forensics officer, fire investigation dogs and several plainclothes officers were working at the scene."
