ACOM investigates serious incident in Valencia targeting group of French Jewish minors

Since news broke yesterday of the serious incident at Valencia airport involving fifty French Jewish children and their group leader, ACOM has been in direct contact with the families and is actively investigating this alarming episode.

The minors, participants in the Kineret summer camp, were forcibly removed from a Vueling flight returning to France. Their group leader was violently arrested by the Guardia Civil in an aggressive and unjustifiable manner.

ACOM is already taking the strongest possible legal action against all parties responsible, whether the airline, the aircraft crew, the police, or any other actor involved in this incident.

This unacceptable episode is yet another example of the alarming deterioration in the safety and well-being of Jews in Spain. ACOM has been warning for years about this growing trend, and we will continue to act firmly in defense of the rights and dignity of our community.
