The UK-based Persian language television channel Iran International reported on Wednesday that after the war began between Israel and Hamas, the Iranian regime threatened the Jewish communities in the country.
Jews of Iranian origin in Israel are reporting that their relatives in Iran have left family Whatsapp groups and are even blocking the numbers of all their Israeli contacts.
Since the start of the war, concern in the Jewish community of Iran, which numbers several tens of thousands of members, has spiked.
The report adds that the local Jewish community organized pro-Gaza demonstrations in Teheran, the capital, and in the city of Esfahan. The demonstrations were held under the headline: "Judaism has no connection with Zionism."
During the demonstrations, the demonstrators even waved banners in Hebrew condemning "Israel's crimes against the Palestinian people."
