A childcare centre in Sydney was set alight earlier today and anti-Semitic graffiti was sprayed on the wall, authorities said, the latest in a spate of attacks in Australia targeting the Jewish community, according to Reuters.

The childcare centre, located near a Jewish school and synagogue in the city’s east, suffered extensive damage but there were no reports of injuries in the attack which occurred around 1am (7pm PKT, Monday), police said.

It was the second anti-Semitic attack on property in four days in Sydney, and comes amid a spate of similar crimes targeting the Jewish community in Australia’s most populous city.

New South Wales state Premier Chris Minns said the perpetrators would be caught and police had put more resources into investigating hate crimes, as public frustration grows over the lack of arrests following previous antisemitic attacks.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the latest attack as “a vicious crime”.
