After protest at synagogue, Mamdani says Israel immigration event misused ‘sacred space’
About 200 protesters chanted violent slogans and blocked access to a synagogue event promoting Jewish immigration to Israel, prompting a DOJ criminal investigation.
On November 19, 2025, anti-Israel protesters gathered outside Park East Synagogue, chanting antisemitic slogans and alarming the Jewish community, as reported by various sources.
The protest targeted an immigration fair hosted by Nefesh B'nefesh, a group assisting Jewish immigration to Israel, and was disavowed by Columbia University as they do not support the organizing organizations involved.
Zohran Mamdani, New York City's mayor-elect, stated it was 'inappropriate' to use sacred spaces for such activities but refrained from condemning the protest directly, leading to criticism from Jewish leaders.
The U.S. Department of Justice announced a federal investigation into the protest, describing such actions outside houses of worship as a federal crime and affirming a zero-tolerance policy for violence or obstruction.
