Attacks on Jews in Dagestan

Antisemites in Dagestan searching for Jews…

“The attacks included large crowds in the city of Hasbiurt in the Caucasian Republic of Dagestan besieging a hotel where they claimed Israelis were staying.

The mob then raided the hotel and searched for Jews, according to Yaroslav Trofimov, a reporter with the Wall Street Journal. The group dispersed when none were found.”

“Meanwhile, a Jewish cultural center was set on fire in Nalchik, the capital city of Kabardino-Balkaria, according to images posted on Telegram.

Jews have inhabited the North Caucuses for over two millennia. Around 3,000 Jews continue to live in the region, according to the Jewish Virtual Library.”
