Sa’ar demands Starmer crack down on ‘rampant antisemitic and anti-Israeli incitement’ after deadly attack

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar denounces the deadly terror attack on a synagogue in Manchester during Yom Kippur, saying British Jews are “currently suffering from a horrific wave of antisemitism.”

“The truth must be told: blatant and rampant antisemitic and anti-Israeli incitement, as well as calls of support for terror, have recently become a widespread phenomenon in the streets of London, in cities across Britain, and on its campuses,” Sa’ar writes in a post on X. “The authorities in Britain have failed to take the necessary action to curb this toxic wave of antisemitism and have effectively allowed it to persist.”

Sa’ar adds that Israel “expects more than words from the Starmer government.”

“We expect and demand a change of course, effective action, and enforcement against the rampant antisemitic and anti-Israeli incitement in Britain.”
