Israel is continuing its advance into Gaza with tanks and soldiers, along with its relentless bombing campaign.
Federal officials say they are responding to a rise in threats against Arab, Jewish and Muslim communities as the war in Gaza intensifies, coordinating with thousands of police departments across the country to better understand the threats and deploy resources.
Even before the Israel-Gaza war began this month, hate crimes in the country — including crimes against Jews and Muslims — had been on the rise. Federal officials have not released data showing how many threats or incidents have been reported since Hamas first attacked Israeli civilians and military installations on Oct. 7, triggering a massive and ongoing Israeli response.
