Police in Bournemouth have increased patrols following a series of anti-Semitic attacks targeting the local Jewish community. Over the weekend, a Jewish teenager was shot with an airgun while walking to synagogue, and several Jewish homes were vandalized with swastika graffiti. The incidents have left the community shocked and fearful, with some residents removing traditional mezuzah scrolls from their doors for safety. Local rabbis have called for unity and resilience, urging Jewish residents to remain proud of their identity despite these acts of hate. Authorities are treating the attacks as hate crimes and have launched a full investigation to find those responsible.
