AN ANTI-Semitic man wielding a knife has reportedly stormed a local daycare centre in France.
It has been claimed that the attacker broke in through the front door of the nursery and headed to the director's office where he threatened her with a six-inch blade.
The Champigny-sur-Marne police force reported that the man wielded the blade in front of the director whilst he violently insulted her.
According to the police report, he said: “I'm going to rape you, I'm going to kill you, dirty Jew, dirty Zionist, I'm going to come back with people and make you like in Gaza."
Despite his threats, the director was not physically assaulted.
The police were notified immediately, and nine children were confined to another room by other teachers.
The anti-Semitic attacker was not able to reach any of the children, and fled the scene shortly after the police were contacted.
Although no one was physically harmed, the Jewish director has been shaken by the incident.
Her school, in Val-de-Marne, has many children between the ages of 3 months and 3 years with Jewish families.
Police have been carrying out thorough searches, but he is currently still on the run.
Since Israel waged war in Gaza, anti-Semitic attacks have been on the rise in France.
Just last month a woman was stabbed after answering the door to her home in broad daylight.
The assailant, said to have dressed in dark clothes and his face partially masked, stabbed her twice then fled.
The police report also alleges that the assailant painted a Swastika on her door.
The victim was rushed to hospital with stab wounds to her abdomen but her injuries are not life-threatening.
