Hundreds of pro-Palestine rioters attacked a synagogue in the Spanish enclave of Melilla in North Africa while worshippers were inside Wednesday evening, according to Spanish media reports.
The rioters shouted “murderous Israel” in front of the Or Zaruah Synagogue and waved Palestinian flags until police dispersed them, a report in the newspaper El Independente said.
No injuries were reported.

The autonomous Spanish city, which lies on the Mediterranean Coast, is an autonomous zone of Spain in North Africa and borders Morocco.
Juan José Imbroda, Melilla’s governor, called for toleration and respect.
“May this peace that we have achieved through the wisdom of all the people of Melilla continue to prevail,” Imbroda said in a televised address. “May foreign conflicts, no matter how painful they be, not affect this exemplary coexistence that we people of Melilla have.”
The incident comes just hours after a mob of pro-Palestinian Tunisian rioters severely damaged a synagogue in the city of el-Hamma.
Violence against Jews and Jewish places of worship have been reported across the world since the Hamas terrorist group launched a brutal attack against Israel on Oct. 7, killing over 1,400.
