Disturbing graffiti targeting Jewish residents has been placed on the side of the road, marking the latest anti-Semitic attack to rock Australia.
The hateful message was discovered on Monday at a construction site on the Princes Highway in Arncliffe, in Sydney’s southwest.
‘You! Yes, you,” the graffiti says.
‘Westfield = Jews… All banks are owned by Jews.’
The message ended with a horrible three-word phrase: ‘Hitler was right!’
New South Wales Police told Daily Mail Australia that officers are investigating the discovery.
It is the latest act of anti-Semitism after a Melbourne synagogue was firebombed on Friday and dozens of cars and buildings vandalized in Sydney in November.
The graffiti was found two days before police were called on Wednesday to Magney Street in Woollahra, a predominantly Jewish suburb in Sydney, for reports of a car engulfed in flames.
A burned car was found in the street and graffiti reading “kill Israel (sic)” on the wall behind it.
Anti-Semitic graffiti was left at an Arncliffe construction site (pictured) just days before another similar incident in Sydney’s east, it has been revealed.
The perpetrators of Wednesday’s attack are believed to be two thinly built people, aged between 15 and 20, who were wearing dark clothing and face coverings.
Prime Minister Chris Minns condemned the anti-Semitic attack.
“I will be speaking to the police this morning,” Minns posted on social media.
“They will be found and will face the full weight of the law.”
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has called the incident “an outrage”.
“Those responsible for the AFP’s Operation Avalite will inform me this morning,” he said. “I stand with the Jewish community and unequivocally condemn this attack.”
“There is no place for hate or anti-Semitism in our community.”
It was the second attack in Woollahra after several cars were vandalized with anti-Israel slurs, one of which was also set on fire last month.
Police discovered a car engulfed in flames and graffiti reading “kill Israel (sic)” (pictured) in Woollahra, a predominantly Jewish neighborhood in Sydney, on Wednesday.
Police found up to a dozen cars graffitied with anti-Israel messages on November 21 after emergency services responded to a burning car.
Several cars, which were parked along Wellington Street, Tara Street, Fullerton Street and Ocean Street, were covered in white spray paint that read “F**k Israel.”
The door of a unit complex on Ocean Street was also painted with anti-Israel slogans.
Celebrity chef Matt Moran’s Chiswick restaurant, co-owned by the Solotel group’s Jewish chief executive Elliot Solomon, was also vandalized.
The letters ‘PKK’ were also seen on several cars and on windows in Chiswick.
PKK could refer to the Kurdistan Workers Party, which some countries, including Australia, have designated a terrorist organization.
