A Paris Jewish school was vandalized Feb. 2, 2026, with police probing it as a possible antisemitic hate crime.

A Jewish primary school in Paris’s 20th arrondissement was vandalized on February 2, 2026, with windows broken, a security camera torn down, and a school plaque stolen and later found nearby. Police confirmed no entry into the building and are investigating the attack as a potential hate crime motivated by religion. The incident, part of a broader rise in antisemitic incidents in France since October 2023, has drawn condemnation from officials and community leaders. While recent data shows a 20% drop in antisemitic acts through August 2025, concerns remain amid regional tensions and global anti-Semitism. The case is under investigation by the 20th arrondissement police.
