Europe antisemitism: Berlin synagogue targeted as attacks rise

Berlin’s Jewish community has been shaken by two petrol bombs thrown at a synagogue amid a spike in antisemitic incidents in some European countries.

Police said two people threw “burning bottles filled with liquid” in what was described as attempted arson.

“We could feel the tensions more and more,” said director Anna Segal. She said the community had felt very threatened in recent days.
