Antisemitic Attacks Across Europe Raise Questions About Shadowy 'Earthquake Faction' Terror Group
A wave of antisemitic attacks across Europe, including an arson at an Elbit Systems-linked facility in Pardubice, Czech Republic, has drawn attention to a group calling itself 'The Earthquake Faction.' The Pardubice incident forced PM Babis to return to Prague and convene the State Security Council. The pattern of attacks spans multiple European countries and appears linked to the broader Iran-Israel conflict. European security services are investigating whether the group operates as an Iranian proxy or an opportunistic ideological network exploiting the war to target Jewish and Israeli-linked institutions.
