Israeli President Reuven Rivlin said: "Once again, Jews in Europe are in danger. Today's brutal stabbing of a member of the Jewish community in Helsingborg, Sweden, is yet another reminder that we cannot rely on fading memories of the Holocaust to keep today's Jewish communities safe, as our schools, synagogues and community centers are turning into fortresses....Our thoughts and prayers are with the injured, her family and community....Jews need to live in calm and security just like the other residents in their countries. Enough with anti-Semitic terror!"
