Several people were wounded on Friday night outside a synagogue in Buenos Aires, Argentina, when two assailants attacked them with knives and other objects.
The attack was staged against worshipers leaving the Mikdash Yosef synagogue in the Palermo neighborhood of the city, as people were leaving following the end of the Friday night Shabbat service.
One of the assailants also threw rocks at the congregants and a security guard, and reportedly shouted antisemitic epithets during his attack.
He was stopped by a security guard who sprayed him with pepper gas and arrested by the police.
According to the Enlace Judio Jewish news website and forum, one of the assailants cried out “Jews, they have to die, they have to be killed.”
The community leader Rabbi Uriel Husni sustained cuts to his arms during the attack which reportedly required stitches.
“I never thought that something like this could happen. I had terror. Together with security we were able to stop it,” Husni told the news website Vis a Vis, adding that the synagogue would now ask for police protection at the entrance to the synagogue.
