On the second anniversary of the attack on Israel, Temple Israel in Minneapolis was vandalized with graffiti targeting 'zionists' and praising Hamas. The messages, including references to the Oct. 7 attack and symbols associated with Hamas, were spray-painted on the synagogue's preschool wing. Community leaders described the incident as deeply harrowing and an escalation of antisemitic rhetoric, emphasizing the pain and outrage felt by local Jewish residents. Authorities are investigating the incident, and local officials have expressed support for the synagogue, reaffirming their commitment to combating hate. Despite the shock, Temple Israel's leadership remains resolute in their mission of interfaith work and promoting peace.
