A UK Jewish nurse who works at the Royal London Hospital was harassed by two men in a hospital elevator, with one screaming at her, “I want to kill all your people.”
Hadasa Mayerfeld, 27, is a neonatal intensive care nurse who has worked at the hospital for four years caring for babies, reported the Jewish Chronicle.
In a Facebook post, Mayerfeld recounted the verbal assault.
She said that for the previous few weeks, she had made a point of covering up her Magen David necklace at work, “just for my own safety.”
However, as she was riding in the elevator, a man noticed her necklace. The man was not an employee of the hospital.
“Today, as I was in the lift after going downstairs to pray, 2 guys were in the lift with me and one turned to me and said ‘So you don’t support free Palestine?’ I replied – I’m Jewish,” she wrote. “His response, as he squares up in my face – ‘how can someone who comes from people who kill all our innocent children get a job working here? I want to kill all your people!’”
A second man in the elevator, dressed in a Muslim religious robe, laughed as he watched Mayerfeld being verbally assaulted.
She added that she now felt scared to be identified as Jewish at her workplace….
