A Jewish woman has been stabbed in her own home in France, with police finding a Swastika plastered to her door.<\/p>\n
The woman, believed to be in her 30s, heard the doorbell ring at her home in Lyon on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n
Upon answering, she was knifed twice in the stomach, a police spokesperson confirmed.<\/p>\n
The attacker, a man, then fled the scene and remains on the run.<\/p>\n
Police say he is dressed all in black and had his face hidden during the horror attack.<\/p>\n

David said he knows of a group of Jewish friends who were followed and threatened by another group of young people.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> \u201cThey weren\u2019t even wearing anything that could identify them as Jewish,” David, 20, said.<\/p>\n \u201cThere used to be a consensus that you keep your religion at home, but even if people respect this rule [la\u00efcit\u00e9<\/em>]<\/em>, they are pursued by ani-Semitism today.\u201d<\/p>\n He added: \u201cThis is why [Jewish] people are withdrawing into their communities. It makes you want to get together with people who are facing the same problems.”<\/p>\n In light of the growing number of anti-semitic incidents, French Senator and member of the Les R\u00e9publicains party St\u00e9phane Le Rudulier likened the current climate to World War II, as he wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “In 2023, in the middle of Paris, anti-Semitism is back in full view.<\/p>\n “Being Jewish in France is becoming as dangerous as it was in the 1930s! Let’s not forget history! Let’s react!”<\/p>\n
