From the Telegraph:

Jewish families leaving synagogue on Saturday were “targeted” by pro-Palestinian demonstrators after hundreds of thousands gathered for a march on Armistice Day.

Footage circulated on social media on Saturday night showing protesters spraying green smoke, waving Palestinian flags and shouting from cars outside a synagogue on Abbey Road in St John’s Wood, north-west London.

A Jewish campaign group later confirmed it had received “multiple reports” of police having to escort congregants from another London synagogue away in groups “for their own safety”.

The disturbing footage came as anti-Semitic signs and hateful chants were filmed and photographed in the demonstration….

Organisers of Saturday’s march had insisted it would be peaceful.

But on Saturday night, a spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: “Naturally, the Jewish community is terrified.

“We are aware of Jewish families being targeted on their way out of synagogue and have received multiple reports of police having to escort congregants away in groups for their own safety.”

They added: “The placards today bore slogans and imagery that would not have looked out of place in Nazi Germany.

“Islamist extremists, the far-Left and the far-Right were out on the streets, all on one day. What a day to be a Jew in London.”
