Several police departments around the United States are warning Jews of extremist groups planning a “Day of Hate” for Saturday, reports Forward.
The NYPD Intelligence and Counterterrorism bureau said the cautionary message is being circulated due to social media posts and video “instructing likeminded individuals to drop banners, place stickers and flyers, or scrawl graffiti” targeting Jews.
