Sweden allocates funds for Jewish community security

Following increased threats against Jewish congregations and schools after a Hamas attack on Israel, the Swedish government and the Sweden Democrats have agreed to grant SEK 10 million Kroner to the Jewish Central Council, according to reports in Swedish media. This urgent funding will bolster immediate security measures. Due to growing concerns, some parents have been reluctant to send their children to Jewish schools. The allocation is an addition to the proposed SEK 30 million increase for security in faith communities and civil society organizations in the next year's budget.
