The gabbai of the Achvat Re’im Shul in Ra’anana was horrified to see the mezuzos torn from the walls, covered in blood, and then affixed to a wall in the form of a swastika. The gabbai headed to the police station in Kfar Saba where he filed an official complaint.

Police have since learned that the mezuzos on entrances to ten neighbors to the shul were torn off as well.

A 17-year-old resident of Ra’anana was taken into custody leading to the arrests of two additional minors in the case, all residents of the city. Kfar Saba Police Chief Peretz Ratzon told reporters the attack is quick a serious matter, adding the investigation is still ongoing.
