Members of the Kaye Family and other mourners attend the burial service for Lori Gilbert Kaye, who was killed in the Chabad of Poway Synagogue shooting, at El Camino cemetery in San Diego, California, on April 29 2019. A rabbi who carried on preaching despite being wounded in the shooting said on April 28 that Jews would not be intimidated by the"senseless hate" of anti-semitism., a report warned Wednesday, citing an"increasing sense of emergency.
Moshe Kantor, the president of the European Jewish Congress, sounded the alarm in an annual report from his Kantor Center that draws on official statistics. The report comes four days after a gunman killed one person and wounded three in a synagogue near San Diego and six months after 11 died in a similar attack in Pittsburgh.
"In 2018, we witnessed the largest number of Jews murdered in a single year since decades," Kantor said, deploring a 13-percent rise in"severe and violent" incidents. The rise in anti-Semitic violence, threats and harassment has been documented elsewhere, including by the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights and US Anti-Defamation League.
