Baku/09.10.23/Turan: On the night of October 2, the only functioning synagogue "Mordechai ha-Navi" was desecrated in the Armenian capital. Vandals threw a molotov cocktail into the building, knocked out windows and doused the walls of the building with paint from the outside. The reason is "Israeli support for Azerbaijan", the radio station "KAN Reshet-bet" reported.
According to the Armenian media, the ASALA youth organization has assumed responsibility.
"We, the young followers of the true freedom fighters of the Armenian people, are proud to announce the intimidation operation that took place on the morning of October 3, 2023 against the World Jewish Center in Yerevan (23 Nar Dos Street).
Jews are enemies of the Armenian people, accomplices of the Turkish crimes and the bloody regime of Aliyev against the Republic of Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), accomplices in the forcible deportation of more than 100 thousand residents of Artsakh from the ancestral Armenian lands. The Jewish state supplies weapons to the criminal regime of Aliyev, it is actively supported by the Jews of America and Europe. If the rabbis of the USA and Europe continue to support the Aliyev regime, then we will burn synagogues in other countries as well. Every rabbi will be under our gaze."
Earlier on September 9, an unknown person broke into the same synagogue and began threatening Jews praying there. The reason is the fact that from late August to mid-September, about 200 rabbis from the United States, Europe and other countries made a sharp protest against attempts by Armenian propaganda to equate the events in Karabakh with the Holocaust. In response, representatives of the Armenian diaspora began to put pressure on the rabbis.
The Armenian authorities have not yet officially responded to the incident that occurred on September 9, nor to the recent act of vandalism in the synagogue. ---02B---
