jew mJesrusalem: In an apparent racist assault, which is also linked to the corona outbreak, an Indian-origin Jew, who was mistaken to be a Chinese was brutally attacked by two men in Israel’s Tiberias city.

The assaulters were reportedly yelling ‘Corona, Corona’!

Am-Shalem Singson, 28, from the Bnei Menashe community, hailing from the north-eastern states of Manipur and Mizoram, was admitted to the Poriya hospital with severe chest injuries, Channel 13 reported.

The incident happened on Saturday and Singson told the police that all his efforts to explain to the attackers that he was an Indian and not a Chinese fell on deaf ears.

Singson had migrated to Israel three-years-old, with his family, state reports.

However, what should be noted here is that there are no witnesses to the incident and the police search is primarily based on the security footage in the area.
