Report: Pandemic gives rise to antisemitic 'Zoom bombing'

Rabbi Shai Cherry poses for a photograph at Congregation Adath Jeshurun in Elkins Park, Pa., Monday, April 26, 2021. Antisemites adopted a new tactic for spewing their hate when the COVID-19 pandemic closed synagogues and Jewish schools and community centers: Hijacking video conferences. On the morning of June 27, 2020, Rabbi Shai Cherry was leading a Shabbat service on Zoom for his congregation in a Philadelphia suburb when several guests with suspicious usernames began posting pornographic images and antisemitic messages like "Hitler should have finished the job." One of them posted Cherry's home address. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke)
