Jewish community in Bosnia and Herzegovina expressed support to Sarajevo Mayor after she was met with criticism and threats over her stances towards the Israel-Hamas conflict i.e. the suffering of innocent people.

“After I posted last night about the unpleasantries that I have been exposed to lately, the first guests I welcomed this morning in my office were the representatives of the Sarajevo Jewish community and the La Benevolencija association, who came to express their support. This support exactly is a clear sign that I have become a target with no reason and that everything that does not resemble me or the city I lead is being attributed to me,” said Karic, reiterating the importance of this gesture.
