Ottawa police are investigating after a man at Saturday’s Gaza protest was spotted with a placard showing an Israeli symbol alongside a swastika.

“We are aware of this image circulating on social media and it is under investigation,” police said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“We ask anyone with information about this incident to contact police at 613-236-1222, ext. 7300.”

The photo was posted on the X, formerly Twitter, account of the CJIA.

The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs describes itself as the “advocacy agent of (Jewish Federations of Canada-United Israel Appeal), representing Jewish Federations across Canada.”

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also took to X to deplore the “display of a swastika.”

“When we see or hear hateful language and imagery, we must condemn it. The display of a swastika by an individual on Parliament Hill is unacceptable. Canadians have the right to assemble peacefully – but we cannot tolerate antisemitism, Islamophobia, or hate of any kind, he wrote.
