The Chief Rabbi of Paris, Moshe Sebbag, has urged Jews to leave France following elections that are expected to result in victories for right-wing parties, reports the Jerusalem Post.

"It is clear today that there is no future for Jews in France," said Sebbag. "I tell everyone who is young to go to Israel or a more secure country."

“Many Ashkenazi Jewish families here since before World War II couldn’t think to vote for National Rally, yet the Left has been antisemitic in recent times,” said Sebbag. “The Jews are in the middle because they don’t know who hates them more.”

As previously reported, in Rouen, France, police shot a man who attempted to set fire to a synagogue and attacked officers with a knife.
