An airport in Russia has been plunged into chaos after thousands of people turned up to take part in a horrifying “Jew hunt”.
Disturbing video footage – which the Daily Star hasn't been able to verify, but Russian news outlets are claiming is true – shows an airport in Makhachkala, Dagestan, Russia swarmed by a huge angry mob trying to get into every part of the airport to “hunt for Jews”. The chaos was sparked after locals had heard that a flight from Israel was landing at the airport, and chants of “Allahu Akbar” are heard in the video, as scared staff are seen locking themselves in office, while local police on site were telling everyone to “go home”.
The rioters were also seen breaking the airport's perimetre fence and attempting to get onto the runway in one of many videos going viral form the scene. And one video shows them bolting down the runway to get to passengers exiting the plane, and the passengers quickly returning to the plane for safety – they were heard speaking in Russian, but it is not clear where they had landed from.

A Senior Israeli security official has stated that they are currently coordinating Russian Security Services in Dagestan to ensure the safety of a small group of Israelis/Jews who have been taken by bus to a secure location at the airport. A flight to Moscow is currently being planned with Russian officials, but it is not known now long that could take.
The video footage caused anger on social media, with one person stating on Twitter/X: “Look at that…Russians can protest! Just not against invading their neighbours… apparently, only against Jews coming to their airport. “But, sure, they are waging a glorious war against the "nazis" in Ukraine.”
And another wrote: “In Makhachkala, Russia, the 'Jew hunt' at the airport continues into the night.". And a third compared it to the "pogroms" of Jews which took place in Russia in 1881.
