Suspected terrorists were arrested in December in Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands and, according to statements from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office, had planned to attack the Israeli embassy in Sweden, bought drones and exploited the support of local criminal organizations to carry out their plans.
Ever since the conflict between Israel and Hamas broke out, terrorism alert has returned to its highest levels in the West and security has been strengthened around places linked to Tel Aviv or frequented by Jews, such as synagogues, cemeteries and embassies. Despite this, numerous attacks and incidents of vandalism have occurred with anti-Semitic matrixthe latest of which was in France where an illegal Algerian immigrant was killed by police after setting fire to a synagogue.
Various organizations, including the Anti-defamation leaguethey also detected a exponential increase of acts motivated by anti-Jewish hatred in the old continent and in the United States, where the protests against the conflict have often lapsed into slogans against Israel and episodes of violence against the Jews.
