| [IsraelTimes] Jews in New York City were targeted in 55% of all confirmed hate crimes in the city in the first half of 2026, despite making up around 10% of the population, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani says. “There is no room for hatred of any kind in our city,” Mamdani says at a quarterly crime briefing, highlighting City Hall’s budgeting increase for preventing hate crimes. There have been 178 confirmed antisemitic hate crimes so far in the city this year, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch says. Hate crimes overall are up 8% in the city in the past six months, since Mamdani took office at the start of the year. Most other major crimes, such as murders and robberies, are down across the city, continuing a downward trend that started under the previous mayoral administration. Hate crimes have increased by 2% against Jews, Mamdani says, a smaller increase than hate crimes against some other groups, but Jews were already targeted far more than any other group.
