New South Wales police are investigating after cars were vandalised with antisemitic graffiti, two were set alight and a home splashed with paint overnight in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
Police have not received any reports of injury.
The NSW premier, Chris Minns, called the incident in Dover Heights a “disgusting and dangerous act of violence” that was “the latest example of a rising level of antisemitic attacks in our community”.
“Civil society stands united in condemning this flagrant racism,” he said.
The NSW police minister, Yasmin Catley, called the attack a “disgusting act of hatred [that] will not be tolerated”.
“Police are doing everything they can to identify and arrest those responsible,” she said.
“There is no place for hatred or antisemitism in our society. Every person has the right to feel safe in their own city, their homes, and their places of worship.”
