The New York City Police Department's July 2026 hate crime statistics reveal that anti-Jewish incidents accounted for 70% of all confirmed hate crimes in the city, with 23 recorded incidents. This represents a 53% increase from July 2025. Since Mayor Zohran Mamdani took office in January, anti-Jewish hate crimes are up 8.5% year over year, while overall hate crimes have increased 9.4%.
Mamdani described the spike as 'unacceptable' and stated that efforts to combat antisemitism would continue.
The trend is consistent with national data. As The Zioneer reported on July 7, FBI hate crime data showed Jews were targeted in approximately 15% of all reported hate crimes nationwide, six times their population share. The J7 task force, in a July 29 report, identified 2025 as the deadliest year for diaspora Jews in over three decades, with a shift from rhetorical abuse to lethal physical violence.
