MIAMI – The Florida Department of Law Enforcement issued a bulletin warning local police agencies about antisemitic groups’ call for a national day of activism on Saturday.
The Anti-Defamation League has been monitoring the threat and in response called for a “Shabbat of peace.” The Broward Sheriff’s Office issued an “awareness alert” Friday asking the public to keep an eye out for antisemitic activity amid a threat of vandalism.
