Summary
In response to an antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colorado, where eight people were injured by Mohamed Sabry Soliman, Canadian Jewish organizations have urged governments to take action against rising antisemitism. Soliman, who used Molotov cocktails and claimed to shout “Free Palestine,” has been charged with a federal hate crime, with the FBI treating it as terrorism. Following this incident, incidents of antisemitism have surged in Canada, with a reported 71% increase in hate crimes against Jewish individuals, prompting police to enhance security around places of worship and community centers.
