Attack on a Synagogue in Budapest

Unknown perpetrators broke into the synagogue on Jávorka Ádám Street in Budapest’s 14th district, where they smashed ritual objects and vandalized the interior. Several religious artifacts were stolen, but all indications suggest that the perpetrators were motivated not by financial gain but by a desire to desecrate the site.
