Antisemitism is surging across the globe, with the United States recording its highest number of anti-Jewish hate crimes ever in 2024, according to the FBI’s latest hate-crimes report. The agency documented 1,938 single-bias anti-Jewish incidents last year—an increase of nearly 6% over 2023. Shockingly, 69% of all religious hate crimes targeted Jews, who make up just around 2% of the U.S. population. These crimes included hundreds of property damage cases, dozens of assaults, and widespread intimidation, with California, New Jersey, and New York topping the list of states with the most reported offenses.

The rise in antisemitism is not limited to the U.S. Internationally, incidents are escalating—from antisemitic arson and graffiti in suburban neighborhoods like Clayton, Missouri, to organized global demonstrations. In Greece alone, more than 25 anti-Israel protests are scheduled for Sunday as part of a coordinated campaign dubbed “Day of Action for Gaza,” which aims to disrupt popular tourist destinations and send a message of hostility against the Jewish state. These growing hostilities reflect a deeply concerning global trend of hatred and violence against the Jewish people, echoing dangerous patterns from history.

The number of antisemitic incidents recorded in the UK between January and June 2025 is the second-highest figure ever seen by the Community Security Trust in any first half of a year, the organization revealed on Wednesday.

This half-year comes second only to the same period last year in terms of the quantity of antisemitic incidents.

The CST, a charity that monitors antisemitism and provides security for the Jewish community in Britain, recorded 1,521 antisemitic incidents in the UK during the first half of 2025, with at least 200 incidents every month.
