In a shocking incident in North Toronto, a peaceful community was rattled when a Jewish school became the target of threats.

Three young men, allegedly motivated by events in the Middle East, made menacing threats against Jewish children during lunchtime.

Fortunately, swift action by security personnel and the police prevented any violence or injuries. The incident has raised concerns about the safety of soft targets like schools and has ignited debates about hate crimes and terrorism in the country.

Earlier today, the head of the Tannenbaum Community Hebrew Academy of Toronto (TannenbaumCHAT), Jonathan Levy, addressed the media, expressing deep concern about the incident.

He confirmed that despite the lack of physical harm, the threats made were illegal and deeply troubling. The Toronto Police responded promptly, launching an investigation that may result in charges.
