New Antisemitism Statistics from Germany’s Most Populous State Worry Officials, Jewish Leaders | Algemeiner.com

A new report detailing more than 250 antisemitic attacks in Germany’s most populous state during 2022 “confirms the perception of the Jewish community that Jews are confronted with antisemitism almost every day,” according to a senior Jewish communal official.
The report on antisemitic incidents in the state of North-Rhine Westphalia (NRW) — Germany’s most densely populated, home to 18 million people — disclosed that 264 outrages involving Jews were recorded during 2022. Compiled by RIAS, a government-funded body monitoring antisemitism, the report — the first to be published on the situation in NRW — stressed that four of the incidents involved “extreme violence.”
