A Caracas shul was targeted in the latest anti-Semitic attack in Venezuela - undoubtedly connected to the government's vehemently anti-Israel position in the Gaza War.
A guard was found later by authorities, apparently he had been threatened by the gunman and tied up while the assailants broke down the shul doors and entered, knocking seforim on the ground. They also broke open the Aaron Kodesh and threw sifrei torah on the ground and sprayed graffiti on the entire shul.
The graffiti included "Jews get out", "Death to Jews" and "Jews not wanted". Daniel Ben-Naim of the local Federation of Jewish communities stated the attack testified to the growing anti-Semitic sentiment in the country, a worrisome situation. The damage to the shul and sifrei kodesh was reportedly extensive.
