Anti-Semitic incidents are increasing in the Muslim-dominated North Caucasus. In the republic of Dagestan, an angry mob stormed the airport after a plane from Israel landed there.

Because of the Gaza conflict, anti-Jewish attacks are increasing in Russia’s Muslim-dominated North Caucasus. In Makhachkala in the Republic of Dagestan, a crowd of people forced their way into the airport on Sunday evening because a plane from Tel Aviv had landed there, allegedly carrying refugees from Israel. Numerous people also ran onto the airfield. Videos posted on online networks show the men breaking through fences, kicking in doors in the terminal and trying to check cars leaving the airport. Some shouted “Allahu Akbar” (God is great).
