Federal authorities have issued a nationwide alert highlighting the increased threat facing Jewish and Israeli communities across the United States. The warning comes in the wake of two high-profile violent incidents that have shaken those communities and drawn concern from federal law enforcement.
In a Public Service Announcement released jointly by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, officials pointed to a recent uptick in antisemitic violence, citing multiple attacks as examples of a troubling trend. “The war in Gaza,” the bulletin said, “may motivate other violent extremists and hate crime perpetrators with similar grievances to conduct violence against Jewish and Israeli communities and their supporters.”
