Police are investigating an alleged assault on a Jewish man in Leeds who reported a woman struck him with a metal pole and declared: "This is because you're killing babies in Gaza."
The incident is said to have occurred on Saturday afternoon as a pro-Palestine protest shut down part of the city centre.
The alleged victim, told the JC that the woman, whom he did not know, tore a flag off its pole and struck him with the hard baton-like object.
He claims she told him, “This is because you're killing babies in Gaza”, before grabbing a hot cup of coffee out of his hand and throwing the contents over him.
