Two men, one of whom was visibly Jewish, were stabbed outside an Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Manhattan<\/a> on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Eyewitnesses allege that the suspect shouted “Allahu Akbar” during the incident, the Anti-Defamation League said in a post on X\/Twitter.<\/p>\n

The police reported that a man, 57, was stabbed in the back by the suspect, and that a second man, 50, was stabbed in the chest.<\/p>\n

Local police<\/a> said that one of the victims is Asian, and the other is Jewish, CBS reported.<\/p>\n

Investigators are reviewing whether the incident was a hate crime.<\/p>\n

“I have been briefed on today\u2019s horrifying stabbings on the Upper West Side, where an Asian man and a Jewish man were attacked,” New York Mayor, Zohran Mamdani said in a post on X.<\/p>\n

“According to witness and victim statements, the perpetrator yelled ‘Allahu Akbar’ during both attacks. I am relieved that both victims are in stable condition.”<\/p>\n

“The NYPD\u2019s initial investigation suggests that mental health may have been a factor. They are also evaluating these stabbings as potential hate crimes,” he added.<\/p>\n

New York Governor Kathy Hochul<\/a> also responded to the attack in a post on X, saying she was “Disgusted by what appears to be another senseless attack on New Yorkers simply because they\u2019re Jewish.”<\/p>\n

“The strength of New York has always been our ability to live together across every faith and background,” she said.<\/p>\n

Hochul added that “Our hearts are also with the second victim. Asian New Yorkers, like Jewish New Yorkers, have endured waves of hate-fueled violence in recent years. Hate rarely stops with one group.”<\/p>\n

Israeli officials reacted to stabbings<\/p>\n

Israel’s Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, held New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani responsible for the attack in Manhattan.<\/p>\n

In a post on X, Danon said “Zohran Mamdani, your incitement is putting Jewish lives in danger in New York, home to the largest Jewish community outside Israel.”<\/p>\n

“You have spent months fueling hatred, demonizing Israel and legitimizing hostility toward Jews. Now take responsibility for the consequences,” he added.<\/p>\n

“Stop the incitement. Before more people get hurt.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two men, one of whom was visibly Jewish, were stabbed outside an Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Manhattan on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":556571,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[37377,111,4160,11740,1903,42,16621,1886,43,12430,98439,40,38,41,39,2586,14325],"class_list":["post-556570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-anti-semitism","tag-antisemitism","tag-attack","tag-danny-danon","tag-diaspora","tag-headlines","tag-manhattan","tag-new-york","tag-news","tag-stabbing","tag-stabbing-attack","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories","tag-usa","tag-zohran-mamdani"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556570","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=556570"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556570\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/556571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=556570"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=556570"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=556570"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
