Muftis of Northern Caucasus speak against anti-Semitic actions

The Coordination Centre for Muslims of Northern Caucasus (CCMNC), while commenting on the action in Cherkessk with calls not to allow refugees from Israel into the republic, has treated anti-Semitic actions as unacceptable and called not to regard the opinion of their participants as the opinion of the whole nation.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that Muslims of Northern Caucasus did not remain indifferent to the aggravation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Thus, in Chechnya, the clergy are holding daily mass prayers in support of Palestine. In Cherkessk and Khasavyurt, protests were organized against the arrival of refugees from Israel to Northern Caucasus.

The CCMNC has pointed to the inadmissibility of inciting ethnic hatred in connection with the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The appeal notes that in recent days, there were attempts to "call on Muslims to take to the streets against all Jews, including those who have been living peacefully in the Russian Federation for centuries."

"In particular, a small group of people gathered in front of the government house in Cherkessk and demanded from the authorities of the Karachay-Cherkessian Republic (KChR) not to allow visitors from Israel into the region and evict all the Jews from the KChR. We categorically don't support such statements," the appeal states.

The appeal also emphasizes that Muftis of Northern Caucasus "have repeatedly spoken out in support of the people of Palestine."

Earlier, the CCMNC accused Israel of "terrorism and genocide" with the involvement of the United States and Western countries, demanding from the United Nations (UN) to intervene in the situation and protect the people of Palestine.
