01 · THE DISPATCH

According to Behadrei Haredim, a Jewish real estate agent was brutally attacked in broad daylight in Toronto by a Yemeni man who identified himself as a Houthi. The assault occurred as the agent arrived to show a property to a client. The attacker reportedly claimed affiliation with the Houthi movement, a Yemeni rebel group backed by Iran. No other details have been confirmed. The incident highlights a rising trend of anti-Semitic attacks targeting Jews in Canada, as The Zioneer previously reported on a Toronto arrest for an anti-Semitic assault and a shooting attack in a Jewish neighborhood of Montreal. The extent of the victim's injuries and police response remain unclear.
