French Muslim and Jewish youth in violent clash

A fight has occurred between Jews and Muslims at a school ceremony in France. The incident occurred in front of the Raoul Dufy Middle School in Lyon, just before the unveiling of a plaque honoring students and professors deported during World War II. Fifteen Israeli students who had been invited to the ceremony were being introduced when several North African youths began yelling “Dirty Jews” and “Death to the Jews.” A fight broke out between the Israeli students’ guides and the North African youths. Several complaints were filed at the police precinct.
