Northern Israel rattled by red alert sirens
NJ Hamawy condemns antisemitism amid safety concerns
Georgiadis apologizes for antisemitic book supports Israel
The time is now 12:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Regional Impacts, red alert sirens sounded in Northern Israel.
In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Adam Hamawy, a Democrat running in New Jersey's 12th congressional district, condemned antisemitism and accusations of dual loyalty, saying, “As a Muslim, I understand what it feels like to face bigotry, to feel unsafe in your community and to have your loyalty to this country questioned,” Hamawy said in a statement he sent to JTA on Wednesday. “In this country, we have seen recent attacks at both synagogues and mosques. I see our safety as intertwined.” Hamawy, a plastic surgeon who served as a trauma surgeon in Gaza, has distinguished himself with his harsh anti-Israel stance and rose to the top of the latest poll after a spending blitz on his behalf by pro-Palestinian super PAC American Priorityes. He has faced questions about his connections in the early 1990s to Omar Abdel-Rahman, the “Blind Sheikh,” and the report notes he condemns antisemitism and says safety of Muslims and Jews is intertwined. Adonis Georgiadis, Greece’s health minister, who promoted an antisemitic book and later apologized to the Jewish community, has become one of Europe’s fiercest voices against antisemitism and in support of Israel.
