As the world marks Holocaust Remembrance Day, a recent report sheds light on the concerning prevalence of antisemitism across the globe. The Annual Antisemitism Worldwide Report, jointly published by Tel Aviv University (TAU) and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), reveals a significant increase in antisemitic incidents in Western countries between 2022 and 2023.
The report highlights a surge in antisemitic activities following the tragic events of Oct. 7, when Hamas terrorists launched a deadly attack in Israel, resulting in numerous casualties and hostages. However, the trend of rising antisemitism was already evident in the first nine months of 2023, indicating a disturbing escalation.
