by COLlive Editor · COLliveAn Israeli visitor to Crown Heights was left shocked and disturbed after encountering antisemitic graffiti inside the Kingston Avenue subway station.
Photos taken at the scene show hateful messages scrawled directly onto metal surfaces along the platform. One image reveals the words “DEATH 2 ZIONISTS” etched into a steel beam, alongside additional scribbles. Another shows the phrase “F*** ISRAEL” carved across a metal panel facing the tracks.
The graffiti appears to have been scratched into the metal rather than written with marker, suggesting a deliberate act of vandalism that may be more difficult to remove.
The visitor told COLlive.com he was taken aback to see such blatant expressions of hate in a public transit station serving a heavily Jewish community.
The incident adds to ongoing concerns about antisemitic rhetoric appearing in public spaces, particularly in areas closely associated with Jewish life.
It is unclear how long the graffiti has been there or whether it has been reported for removal.
