Moscow -- Days after authorities in the Russian city of Borovichi granted a public space to the local Jewish community, the building sustained serious damage in what local Jews believe was an anti-Semitic arson attack.
Pnina Levermore, BACJRR executive director, said the fire was likely a backlash against town authorities' granting the space to Jews, as well as banning neo-Nazi activities, and initiating a successful seminar to counter anti-Semitic and hate propaganda among the town's youth.
According to Alekseev, Borovichi Mayor Vladimir Ogonkov contacted him to express sympathy over the fire and to say he wished he had resources in the local treasury to help with the restoration of the building.
