The White House said Sunday it 'vigorously condemns' the group of pro-Palestinian rioters in Russia who flooded an airport as they were shouting antisemitic chants and reportedly searching for passengers from a flight that departed from Tel Aviv, Israel. The airport, located in the city of Makhachkala in the Republic of Dagestan, closed after rioters began flooding the runway Sunday night, Russian aviation authority Rosaviatsia reported.
The State of Israel views gravely attempts to harm Israeli citizens and Jews anywhere,' the Foreign Ministry said in a statement. 'Israel expects the Russian law enforcement authorities to safeguard all Israeli citizens and Jews, whoever they may be, and to take robust action against the rioters and against the unbridled incitement being directed at Jews and Israelis.
The riot at the Russian airport comes amid the ongoing war in the Middle East between Israeli forces and Hamas terrorists. More than 9,400 people have been killed on both sides since Hamas launched its largest attack against Israel in decades on Oct. 7, prompting Israeli forces to respond. Thousands more have been wounded, and many others have been taken hostage by Hamas and raped, tortured and murdered. Fox News' Andrea Vacchiano contributed to this report.
