London’s Victims Commissioner, Claire Waxman, has raised concerns over a troubling trend where Jewish women suffering from domestic abuse are becoming increasingly hesitant to seek help due to the recent surge in anti-Semitic incidents in the capital.
Waxman revealed that Jewish women are now “choosing to stay with their abusers” out of fear that leaving their homes could expose them to anti-Semitism. She highlighted the profound impact that the ongoing conflict in Israel and Gaza has had on the Jewish community in London, resulting in a rise in both anti-Semitic and Islamophobic hate crimes.
