This report shows a worrying increase in antisemitic incidents in a number of countries, including in the U.S. where 2022 data showed the highest levels of incidents in decades of tracking. (The data about U.S. incidents was initially released in ADL’s

Audit of Antisemitic Incidents .) The persistence of incidents in a wide range of countries speaks to the deep-seated nature of antisemitism. The report will help educate governments and civil society about the need to embrace efforts to fight antisemitism.
Other countries that saw upticks in antisemitic incidents include Italy, Belgium and Australia. However, there were declines in countries with sizeable Jewish populations such as Canada, the UK and Argentina.
The report found that physical attacks tend to occur in a small number of areas in major urban centers including New York and London. Visibly identifiable Jews, including Haredi communities, have been the most frequent victims of assault, both because they are easily identifiable and because they are perceived as vulnerable. These urban attacks included beatings, being spit on, and having objects thrown at them. They were usually not found to be premeditated. The report suggests several tactics for significantly reducing the violent antisemitic attacks in these areas.
“In 2022 it was demonstrated once again that antisemitism does not require any real Jewish presence or direct rivalry with Israel in order to find supporters.”— Antisemitism Worldwide Report
Two disturbing cases studied in the report — antisemitic propaganda spread in Yemen and voiced by two antisemitic parties that won seats in Japan’s parliament — reveal an alarming truth, which is that even in countries with minimal Jewish populations, antisemitism is still a factor. Other case studies looked into a failed coup attempt by an antisemitic extremist group in Germany, and antisemitism within the white Christian nationalist movement and the Hebrew Israelite movement in the U.S.
We encourage you to read this troubling report, and we are proud to partner with Tel Aviv University to share the information widely to inspire action by political leaders and others to Fight Hate for Good.
