Anti-Semitic incident in the Ukraine: Hasidim were attacked on Friday night on a street net to the Baal Shem Tov's tomb in Mezibuz.
One of the victims told Behadrey Haredim that after the tefillah, right after coming out of the tomb, they met a group of seven local young people, who began to curse them:
"It seemed that they were drunk, swore at us and spit at us. At one point we tried to bypass them and move into our place of lodging, then they attacked us physically. My glasses were broken as a result of boxing I got out, and two pairs of glasses of my friends were broken. I was not hurt B"H, but two bochurim were wounded and are suffering of bruises and cuts as a result of the attack."
The tomb guard who heard the commotion hurried to call the local police, and the attackers fled. Local police opened an investigation. "The police have promised to take care of them," the victim said, "They told us they will pay the price for the attack."
