Brooklyn, NY – A prominent Park Slope synagogue was vandalized with anti-Israel graffiti and stickers in an apparent hate-motivated act early Friday, cops said.
A witness spotted “Jews for Palestinian resistance” spray-painted on the sidewalk in front of Congregation Beth Elohim on Garfield Place near Eighth Avenue in the leafy Brooklyn neighborhood around 6:45 a.m. and called 911, police said.
Two anti-Israel stickers were also affixed to the door of the house of worship, cops said. The exact message on the stickers was not immediately known.
The NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force was notified and is investigating, police said.
The disturbing act comes about three weeks after Hamas’ unprecedented deadly attack inside Israel.
