After a reporter exposed Nazi chants and antisemitic remarks directed at a Jewish Italian senator at the youth movement associated with the party of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Roman Jews are calling for a response with “adequate measures.”

“The Jewish Community of Rome condemns the shameful images of racism and antisemitism that emerged from the Fanpage investigation and expresses solidarity with Senator Ester Mieli, victim of intolerable offenses,” wrote Victor Fadlun, president of the Jewish Community of Rome, in Italian.

“We ask that adequate measures be taken, including by FDI as announced,” he said. “It is imperative that society and institutions react forcefully against all forms of hatred and discrimination.” (FDI is Brothers of Italy, Meloni’s party.)

Members of the Gioventù Nazionale (“National Youth”) movement called themselves fascists, yelled “Sieg Heil” and mocked Mieli, a member of the Brothers of Italy party, Reuters reported.
