As anti-semitism rises, Jews in Denmark and Spain warned not to wear religious symbols
“We advise Israelis who come to Denmark and want to go to the synagogue to wait to don their skullcaps until they enter the building and not to wear them in the street, irrespective of whether the areas they are visiting are seen as being safe,” Israel’s ambassador to Denmark, Arthur Avnon, told AFP.
Avnon added that visitors were also advised not to “speak Hebrew loudly” or demonstrably wear Star of David jewelry…
Caroline Jewish School headmaster Jan Hansen told daily Jyllands-Posten: “It is not something that we do officially, but if the issue comes up we would say (to our pupils) they should think twice before walking into certain areas of Copenhagen with a skull cap or Star of David.”
