A woman tore a rabbi’s kip and shouted anti-Semitic slogans with a knife and threatened her with a knife in Vienna on Thursday, Austrian news agency APA reported, citing the Interior Ministry, adding that there was an apparent anti-Semitic attack condemned by Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz. No one was injured in the incident, the woman fled the scene, Austrian police cite the MTI.
According to an article on the oe24.at portal, the rabbi told police that bystanders were looking the other way instead of trying to help him. “It was an attack on the Jews of Vienna. In addition to strengthening the protection of synagogues, we will find out if it was an anti-Semitic attack. We do not tolerate anti-Semitism! – Home Secretary Karl Nehammer wrote on Twitter.
And Sebastian Kurz put it this way: “I condemn as strongly as possible today’s attack on Vienna that affected a rabbi. We must take strong measures against anti-Semitism and do everything we can to ensure that Jews can continue to live safely in Vienna, because Europe without Jews is not Europe. “
