In Austria, an antisemitic incident occurred: a teenager visited the memorial complex of the former Mauthausen concentration camp wearing a shirt with the slogan "Free Palestine" and an image that social media users identified as Dalal Mughrabi, the terrorist who led the Coastal Road attack in 1978, in which 38 Israelis, including 13 children, were killed. A young Jewish woman named Jordana got into an argument with the teenager and teachers, accusing them of calling the war in Gaza a genocide. She posted a video on social media. Memorial staff called the police because of the group's behavior. The article also provides historical background on Mauthausen: the camp was established in 1938, about 199,400 prisoners passed through it, and about 119,000 died, including 38,100 Jews. Conditions were extremely harsh, with most dying from starvation, disease, and forced labor.
