In France the work of airports was disrupted due to threats, in Germany, a synagogue was pelted with "Molotov cocktails" Due to the aggravation of the situation in the Middle East, the number of anti-Semitic incidents has sharply increased in European countries. In France, air traffic was disrupted on Wednesday after many regional airports, in particular in Toulouse, Bordeaux and Lyon, received warnings about explosions. In the afternoon, the situation returned to normal. In a country that is still shaken by the murder of a teacher by an Islamist a few days ago, almost 200 people have been arrested over the past week for anti-Semitic acts. On Wednesday night, molotov cocktails were thrown at a synagogue in Berlin. The German government strongly condemned the attack, which fortunately caused no damage. The police are investigating. Germany, Italy, Belgium and France have stepped up security measures. False threats are coming from different cities, forcing the evacuation of public places. The authorities remind people that spreading false information can lead to imprisonment and heavy fines.
