A Muslim leader in Germany lamented what he termed “a climate of fear” in the country since the start of the October 7 conflict between Israel and Hamas, Anadolu Agency reports.
“We have had so many attacks on mosque communities within weeks than ever before. We have attacks on Muslims and also those who are perceived to be Muslims at a rate like never before,” Aiman Mazyek, the chairman of the Central Council of Muslims in Germany, told media representatives in Berlin.
It makes me “very, very worried” when it comes to the sense of security of the Muslim community, he added.
