(JEWISH GROUP) Jewish community calls for action on antisemitism

Jewish community leaders in West Yorkshire have called for more action to tackle antisemitism after two men were stabbed in London in what police have declared a terrorist incident.

Rabbi Albert Sebastian Chait, from the United Hebrew Congregation (UHC) in Leeds, said antisemitism was a "national emergency" and Jewish people were feeling "very vulnerable".

He said: "Every Jewish person feels like a target is on their back today. This wasn't a building, this wasn't a synagogue. This was a person going about their day, a British Jewish person."

West Yorkshire Police said it recognised the concern and distress the attacks had caused and said more police would be on patrol to offer reassurance.
