Subject: NZJC Annual Report on Antisemitism in New Zealand in 2025
Dear Colleagues
Please find attached the New Zealand Jewish Council’s Annual Report on Antisemitism in
New Zealand in 2025.
Information
This has been released by the NZJC today with the document classification of “public".
In 2025, there were 143 antisemitic incidents. This is the highest number of antisemitic
incidents ever recorded in a single year in New Zealand. Almost all of the incidents have
Official
been without judicial sanction or public condemnation.
the
Executive Summary
1. Geopolitical incidents involving Israel are often associated with an increase in
antisemitic incidents in New Zealand, particularly from far-left and Islamist-
under
motivated individuals.
2. According to NZ Police , New Zealand Jews are disproportionately targeted
compared with other ethnic and religious groups.
3. The number and severity of reported antisemitic incidents in New Zealand reached
unprecedented levels following the 7 October 2023 terror attacks in Israel .
4. There was a total of 143 incidents in 2025. This is the highest number of antisemitic
Released
incidents ever recorded in a single year in New Zealand.
5. The incidents included 5 assaults (the most assaults in any year), 2 threats, and 15
incidents of desecration or damage to Jewish sites.
6. There has also been a disturbing number of incidents targeting individual Jewish New
Zealanders, including antisemitic hate mail sent to private homes.
7. The NZJC continues to advocate for the designation of the IRGC and PFLP as terror
groups.
8. The NZJC is particularly concerned about the glorification or justification of Hamas
and the October 7, 2023, attacks by influencers, academics, and others of social and
political importance.
9. The Jewish Community is grateful for the continued funding of security measures and
government support and hopes that the government will commit to long-term
resourcing, particularly in the wake of the December 2025 Bondi terror attack in
which 15 Jews were shot dead.
We welcome further engagement and support to security Jewish life and Jewish way of life
in New Zealand.
