Newly released tracking data shows antisemitic incidents continued to occur at an elevated pace worldwide during the final full week of May, with researchers recording 139 cases between May 21 and May 28.

The findings reflect a broad range of activity, including harassment, threats, vandalism, public incitement, and anti-Israel expressions that crossed into antisemitic rhetoric. The data also highlights how antisemitism continues to emerge from multiple ideological sources, including far-left, Islamist-inspired, and far-right movements.

Among incidents in which researchers were able to identify a clear ideological motivation, far-left actors accounted for 44.6% of cases, while Islamist-inspired individuals or groups were linked to 43.9%. Far-right actors made up 11.5% of the ideologically categorized incidents. Cases without a clear ideological connection were not included in that breakdown.

The report also found that more than one-fifth of all recorded incidents involved incitement or violent language targeting Jews or calling for Israel’s elimination. Researchers said those cases represented 21.9% of the total incidents documented during the week.

Common forms of rhetoric included calls for an “intifada,” use of the phrase “From the river to the sea,” and references to violence against Israeli soldiers. The inverted red triangle, a symbol increasingly associated with Hamas target-marking imagery, appeared in 11 recorded incidents. Calls for an “intifada” and use of “From the river to the sea” were each documented in nine cases, while variations of language calling for death to Israeli military personnel appeared in six.

The latest figures come amid continued concern over the normalization of antisemitic language in public demonstrations, online spaces, and political activism. Jewish advocacy groups have warned that slogans and symbols tied to violence can contribute to an atmosphere of intimidation for Jewish communities, even when presented in the context of anti-Israel protest.

The data underscores the ongoing challenge facing law enforcement, public officials, and community leaders as they work to distinguish lawful political expression from rhetoric that promotes hatred, threats, or violence against Jews.
