France: 371 attacks on soldiers guarding Jewish schools and synagogues

A couple of weeks ago I reported that French soldiers guarding Jewish schools were attacked 200 times.

In the two weeks since, the number has jumped by 170.   That's about ten a day.

Gallia Watch: 371 attacks on French soldiers guarding Jewish schools and synagogues

Since January 15 the French army’s “OpĂ©ration Sentinelle” has protected 722 Jewish schools and synagogues, some 24/7 even when the establishments were empty. 
The operation came to be regarded as too dangerous for the soldiers who were regularly targets of attacks. Over time the men were worn out. 
The army has reported 371 incidents perpetrated against the soldiers standing guard in front of the protected sites. The Defense Ministry has announced that the men will become more mobile, rendering them less vulnerable.
