Antisemitism continues to escalate across Europe. Disturbing footage circulating across social media platforms shows an unidentified individual removing a mezuzah from a private residence in a Jewish neighborhood in London.

We have received multiple reports of incidents that appear to be deliberate acts of #antisemitism, involving the removal of mezuzah's in #GoldersGreen.

We are liaising with police. If you've been a victim, contact #Shomrim NW London on 03009991234 quoting ref NW683-20/05/25 pic.twitter.com/FKAZHQh9cu

 The security camera video shows the person approaching the home, drawing a knife, and prying the mezuzah from the entrance doorpost. According to the Shomrim organization, this antisemitic act is not an isolated incident in the area in recent weeks.

Social media users reacted with anger, with comments including, "Will London catch him? Or are we watching a city that has already surrendered?" and "This isn't political protest, this is a threat to Jewish lives."
