The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) says antisemitic assaults against American Jews reach a record high in 2025, based on its annual audit of antisemitism. Multiple outlets report that physical assaults are at unprecedented levels, with the PR Newswire release describing Americans targeted at a rate of about 17 times per day on average. It also reports a 39% increase in incidents involving assaults with deadly weapons. CBS News similarly characterizes 2025 as the most violent period ADL has recorded, noting that physical antisemitic assaults hit a record high. Breitbart adds that while assaults involving Jews rose to a record level, overall antisemitic incidents decline compared with the prior year, citing a decrease of about one-third in total incidents nationwide. Taken together, the coverage indicates that although the broader count of antisemitic incidents reportedly falls, the level of violence—particularly assaults and cases involving deadly weapons—continues to increase. The reports present ADL’s findings as an overall trend for 2025 without detailing specific local cases in the excerpts provided.
