Day/Time of event: October 7-13, 2023


What is the current threat:

  • Protests by Israel supporters will very likely lead to counter-protests by pro-Palestine individuals. These counter-protests will likely lead into confrontations and clashes between the two sides, likely escalating into violence and vandalism.

  • Pro-Israel rallies will likely lead to an increase in hate speech against Jews and the Jewish community. Pro-Palestine groups will likely use offensive language, targeting individuals or groups on the opposing side of the conflict. Incidents of anti-Semitism will likely increase.

  • Protests in support of Israel will likely foment offenses, threats, and harassment on social media by disagreeing individuals.

Who will it directly impact:

  • Governments worldwide

  • Police and security forces

  • Civilians worldwide

  • Pro-Israel supporters

  • Jewish communities
