FRENCH communists turned out in large numbers on Sunday across France to join at least 180,000 people protesting against the rise of anti-semitism.

In the largest march against anti-semitism in Paris since a 1990 demonstration against the desecration of a Jewish cemetery, about 100,000 took to the streets.

The French Interior Ministry reports that since the surprise Hamas attack on Israel on October 7 and the brutal Israeli retaliation there have been 1,247 anti-semitic acts recorded in France.
