A gang of five antisemitic teenage boys attacked three teenage yeshiva students Monday evening in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Midwood.
The attackers yelled “Free Palestine,” punched the boy in the face and hurled eggs at him before fleeing the scene.
The attack took place at the corner of Avenue M and East 18th Street, just a block from the spot where a group of antisemites used their fists to make their point in a similar attack five months ago.
It was the third antisemitic attack in Brooklyn since last Friday.
On Sunday a Jewish person walking with children was attacked in Williamsburg, and a Jewish man was attacked Friday in Crown Heights.
The Flatbush Shomrim civil patrol responded to the attack along with NYPD officers.
“Aside from the obvious questions (like, how does pummeling someone with eggs in Brooklyn ‘free’ anything), this hate crime is just one more in the continuous rolling pogrom that identifies New York City,” wrote New York City Council Member Kalman Yeger.
“While I appreciate that NYPD Hate Crimes and NYPD 70 Pct are taking this seriously, the environment in which this incident happens is one where criminals know there are no consequences for crime in New York,” Yeger said, “particularly hate crimes, and particularly against Jews.”
NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is leading the investigation.
Three students standing outside their Yeshivah on Avenue L & East 18th Street, were pelted by eggs. The perpetrators screamed “Free Palestine" and forced the students to say it as well. @FCSPshmira, the @NYPD70Pct and @NYPDHateCrimes are investigating this incident. pic.twitter.com/xzT0VMPzww

Vote Lee zeldin to help stop crime in nyc
Zeldin believes the big lie! You would vote for someone who was willing to overthrow our entire democracy?
…the NKVD had a similar convenient catch-all term for anyone who said or did anything they didn’t like. They called it “counter-revolutionary activities.”
Nothing new here.. they do what they do.. and we do what we do. Our lives are blessed and full of purpose, so glad we are not them.
This will not change unless we make a change. Every one must take an hour out of their day on Tuesday, November 8, Election Day, and vote out the current governor who has done nothing to change the policies and laws that allow these and other criminals to have a free reign. If you don’t care that any time you walk out of your home you are at risk for a stray bullet, a mugging, robbery and eggs being pelted at your children then stay home. The polls are tied neck in neck, so EVERY VOTE COUNTS! As a once… Read more »
Vote Zeldin
WHERE IS BERNHARD GOETZ WHEN WE NEED HIM!!
Vote republican!!! This nov 8
Vote, REPULICAN. You mean vote for those who have no regard, no concern, for the facts, reason, logic or the law. Unless it goes the way they want it. Those who have a disregard for the judicial system, or the constitution, unless they are getting what they want, the way they want. Those who would say that those who protest state sanctioned violence are against them are criminals, but those who threaten, invite, and then carry out those violent threats are patriots.
Incidents like this could get worse all thanks to Kanye West, Trump, their anti-Semitic outbursts, and for their neo-Nazi followers.
Vote for democrats before this escalates further and we face another Holocaust.

Before a criminal commits a crime they ask themselves who is governor. If it’s a democrat they commit the crime if it’s a republican they don’t!! So vote for Lee Zeldin the Republican.
The Republicans are the one’s pushing this anti-Semitic wave. Are you familiar with Kanye West and Donald Trump? Two right wing extremists who have threatened Jews in just the past few weeks alone.
It’s “threatening Jews” to ask them to stick up for Israel. Right…
You’re telling me that you don’t believe Kanye West is an anti-Semite? Was Hitler also a fan of ours? Am I missing something?
You claimed that Trump threatened Jews. To which I responded with what he actually said. Did you see me addressing anything that West said or trying to defend it? No.
She stands for true Torah values and actually cares about NY’s. Her politics protect Jews and other minorities facing discrimination. She has my vote!
How protected do you currently feel?
From my fellow American citizens who believe in upholding democracy? Very safe.
From Trump supporters? Scared out of my mind.
Because Trump supporters are randomly going around and beating people up on the streets and the subways, right?
Trump supporters are attacking the capitol with guns, attempting to murder members of congress, and supporting the fall of democracy to be replaced with fascism.
They “are attacking” right now?
Attempting to murder members of Congress? You mean like the Democrat James Hodgkinson (who shot Republican Rep. Steven Scalise) did? Or the Democrat Rene Boucher (who attacked Republican Rep. Rand Paul)? Or are those somehow (D)ifferent?
Exaggeration
Vote for her,
And let MORE crime happen, AND MORE criminals (ANIMALS) run wild in the streets ???
INSANE !!!!!!!!!!!!
These punks probably couldn’t even find “Palestine” on Google. (Let alone spell it.) They were just being fed lines & jumping on the leftist bandwagon.
Let me clear the air here. The boys belonging to this incident are from Veretzky Mesivta on E 18th between L and M. They are out of control. I lived right next door for 3 years and just moved a couple months ago. They have said disgusting remarks to my wife and I, vandalized the house where I lived and more. Their lunch hour is spent across the street in the park playing basketball where they regularly provoke verbal and physical confrontations with non Jews. They spew racial slurs like N**** out of the windows of the yeshiva. This is… Read more »
