A Jewish father and his young son were left terrified after being attacked by a furious pro-Palestine mob at a motorway service station in Italy. The incident, which has sparked widespread condemnation, saw the man and his six-year-old child targeted by the crowd, who allegedly called them "murderers" before launching the assault.
Eyewitnesses described a scene of chaos as the enraged group surrounded the family, hurling abuse and threats. The father, who was travelling with his son, attempted to shield the child from the verbal and physical onslaught.
Local authorities have launched an investigation into the incident, which has raised concerns about rising antisemitism across Europe. Jewish communities have expressed alarm at the escalating tensions linked to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
This disturbing attack comes amid a surge in reported hate crimes targeting Jewish individuals and institutions in several European countries. Community leaders are calling for stronger measures to protect vulnerable groups and prevent further violence.
