The Guardian reports that the attack “comes amid a growing hate campaign against Israeli tourists, who are described as Israeli soldiers by anti-Semitic groups in Patagonia. Authorities are increasingly concerned about the appearance of posters calling for a boycott of ‘Israeli military tourism’ in the region.”Three out of six policemen who arrived on the scene within the first hour of the attack were hospitalized with serious head injuries, the Guardian reports, adding that the other officers also left the premises, unable to bring the situation under control.Read Argentina’s Javier Milei selects Jewish ambassador to replace foreign minister he firedBy: Atara Beck, World Israel News anti-SemitismArgentinaVictims of Terror
