Netanyahu tells Merkel he’s concerned over rise in anti-Semitism

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells German Chancellor Angela Merkel in a phone call that Israel was concerned over a recent rise in anti-Semitism, after a right-wing nationalist party won seats in Berlin’s parliament.

“Israel is concerned over the rise of anti-Semitism in recent years among political elements from the right and left, as well as from Islamist elements,” Netanyahu’s office quotes him as saying in the call.
