Jerusalem police reported that unknown vandals, believed to be members of the ultra-Orthodox Neturei Karta, ripped down an Israeli flag from a home in the Mea Shearim quarter here.
The vandals tore the flag to shreds and wrote on the door of the home “Zionists, Go Home,” and “Down with the State of Israel.” Police said they still had not found the vandals.
