'Death to Arabs': Students Evacuated From Dorms After Hundreds of Rioters Attempt Break-in [View all]

Arab-Israeli students had to be rescued from their college dormitory in the central city of Netanya Saturday night after a crowd of hundreds of Jews gathered outside, claiming that they had disrupted Shabbat prayer in a nearby synagogue.

Videos of the riot showed the angry crowd storming the campus, waving Israeli flags, chanting “Death to Arabs” and attempting to break down the gates. The rioting crowd even attempted to break in and remove them forcibly.

….

The leader of the religious Zionist enclave Garin Torani in Netanya, Roi Amgar, posted a video of the unrest on X, saying that “Netanya won’t give up until the Arabs who are at Netanya College are expelled! No one can stop us from doing this: Not the police, the municipality or the state! We demand personal security immediately!”
