The number of antisemitic crimes in the German city of Hamburg doubled from 2023 to 2024, Torsten Voss, the head of the Hamburg State Office for the Protection of the Constitution, revealed in an interview with the Hamburger Abendblatt [Hamburg Evening Paper] on Monday.

A total of 249 antisemitic crimes were recorded in the city in 2024, almost twice that of 2023 (132).

Voss added that the antisemitic crimes registered by security authorities in Hamburg in 2023 were almost exclusively committed by right-wing extremists.

However, in 2024, the number of antisemitic crimes motivated by religious ideology or politics (relating to foreign elements) rose significantly, surpassing those by right-wing extremists. 109 crimes were of a right-wing extremist background, and 111 cases were of a foreign ideology or a religious background.

"This is a novelty for Hamburg," Voss told the Abendblatt.
