A medical university in Warsaw is taking "legal action" after a student was pictured holding up an anti-Semitic sign that featured a Star of David being binned alongside the words "keep the world clean". Stylised in the form of a waste disposal advert, a stick figure is seen putting the primary symbol of Judaism, and the central icon on the flag of Israel, into rubbish amid a Palestinian march.The top and bottom of the drawing was painted blue, like the Israeli flag.
"Another said: "I knew that there was anti-Semitism in the world but these days I actually saw the depth and intensity of it."One user said: "Hopefully former student soon."There are widespread concerns about anti-Semitism growing.In the UK, posters of Hamas's victims have been vandalised or torn down.London's Metropolitan Police said 218 antisemitic offences were recorded between October 1 and October 18, compared to 15 in the same period in 2022.
