Here Are The Jewish Community Centers Victimized By Bomb Threats

Since January, Jewish community centers have been terrorized by anonymous bomb threats.

There have been at least 69 bomb threats called into 55 centers across the country as of Feb. 24. The majority of the threats have come in waves and often feature a disguised, robotic voice. One of those calls warned of “slaughter” by explosion. So far all the calls have been deemed hoaxes.

Below is a map showing the centers that have received confirmed bomb threats so far. The caller or callers appear to have no geographic target, though the vast majority have been received in the United States.

We will continue to update this map as threats are received, using information compiled from the Jewish Community Center Association of North America and our own reporting. If you know of a JCC that has received a threat but is not on this list, please email us here.
