"What is most noteworthy are physical attacks and and when our cemeteries are desecrated - overturning stones, painting swastikas and the like," said Lena Posner-Körösi, chairwoman of the Official Council of Swedish Jewish Communities (Judiska centralrådet).
Swedish synagogues are routinely equipped with CCTV and security guards to protect visitors.
"We would otherwise not be able to have our institutions open," said Posner-Körösi, who argued that the current situation in Sweden is deeply disturbing.
"Each incident may seem isolated, but people are targeting Jews, Muslims , homosexuals, Roma. All those who don't blend in with the picture of how to be in Sweden," she said.
