US antisemitism envoy Deborah Lipstadt is condemning the mob targeting of Jews at an airport in Russian Dagestan earlier this evening.
“We call on Russian authorities to ensure their safety. The US stands with Israel and the entire Jewish community as we see a surge in antisemitism throughout the world,” Lipstadt tweets.
“There is no excuse for targeting Jews or engaging in antisemitic incitement anywhere,” she adds.
