The chief rabbi of Orléans, Rabbi Arié Engelberg, was violently beaten, kicked, and even bitten on the shoulder while walking home from synagogue with his nine-year-old son, before the attacker fled after being confronted by a passerby.

Orléans [45] Un acte d'agression antisémite a visé le rabbin Arié Engelberg ce samedi, en présence de son fils de 9 ans, en pleine rue. Un triste rappel de la montée de l'intolérance. #Antisémitisme #Orléans pic.twitter.com/DjVGluC6jJ
