Aliza Shuvaly, owner of Aliza's Place Café in Melbourne, Australia, says she feels "unsafe" after her business was vandalized by swastikas this week.

The Australian Jewish News reported that Shuvaly, the daughter and daughter-in-law of Holocaust survivors, told local news outlets that the anti-Semitic graffiti, which also included the slogan "The Holocaust is a lie," so enraged her that she removed it herself.

"I won't let them have the satisfaction of having it on my wall," she said.

Shuvaly added that the attack made her feel "very unsafe" and "like a target."

Dvir Abramovich, chairman of the local Anti-Defamation Commission, said Jews in Victoria must not feel unsafe "walking the streets or in their businesses."

Abramovich told AJN that "the recent surge in hate and white-supremacist activity in our state, which is hitting an all-time high," was causing many to feel unsafe.

"Those responsible for this crime will be dealt with to the full extent of the law," Abramovich said.
