NYPD reports 214-percent increase in anti-Jewish hate crimes amid Israel-Hamas war

The rise in antisemitic hate crimes in New York City is attributed to public anger over Israel's response to the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack. Israel's military actions in retaliation caused a surge in antisemitic incidents, with a 214% increase in hate crimes targeting Jews in October 2023 compared to the same period last year.
The Anti-Defamation League reported a significant spike of 388% in antisemitic incidents during the first two weeks after the initial attack on Israel, documenting 312 incidents during that period. However, Jewish security groups believe many incidents go unreported.
Hate crimes targeting other groups also saw an increase, with anti-Muslim incidents rising from zero in October 2022 to eight in October 2023, while anti-Black incidents increased from one to four in the same period.
