(BBC) Antisemitic incidents in the UK have more than quadrupled since Hamas’s attack on Israel, says a charity which helps Jewish people in the UK.
The Community Security Trust (CST) recorded 89 “anti-Jewish hate” incidents from 7 to 10 October.
That marked a more than four-fold rise on the 21 antisemitic incidents recorded in the same period last year.
Security Minister Tom Tugendhat said he was “very concerned” at reports of an increase in antisemitism.
The Met Police has also written an open letter to London’s Jewish community expressing support and solidarity.
