After a short break the event was reconvened without the activists and conducted in an appropriate and respectful way. To dishonour the memory of the #Holocaust and the dignity of the survivor is beyond shame and disgrace and shows the blatant antisemitic nature of the activists. pic.twitter.com/t79gXPYkIO

Zoom meetings by Jewish organizations have been targeted by antisemites and white supremacists multiple times since the coronavirus outbreak began in incidents referred to as "Zoombombing."
"While some of these reported Zoombombing incidents can be attributed to Internet trolls without particularly malicious intentions, there is concern that extremists could exploit the increasing reliance on video conferencing technology to target certain groups or advance their hateful messages," said the ADL in a blog post concerning Zoombombing.Omri Nahmias contributed to this report.
