It follows an increase of violent incidents targeting Jewish communities, which has seen the national terror threat level raised to âsevereâ for the first time in five years. In his article, Prince Harry referred to the recent attacks against Jews in Manchester and London and called for those protesting against events in the Middle East to be âclearâ about where their anger is directed.
The Duke referenced his own past mistakes, which previously saw him dress as a Nazi at a âcolonials and nativesâ fancy dress party in 2005.

Prince Harry writes: âAcross the country, we are seeing a deeply troubling rise in anti-Semitism. Jewish communities â families, children, ordinary people â are being made to feel unsafe in the very places they call home.
âThat should alarm us, but also unite us. Because hatred directed at people for who they are, or what they believe, is not protest. It is prejudice. Recent incidents, including lethal violence in London and Manchester, have brought this into sharp and deeply troubling focus.â
Referring to his previous mistakes, which saw him photographed in a Nazi uniform and swastika armband in 2005, Harry wrote: âI am acutely aware of my own past mistakes â thoughtless actions for which I have apologised, taken responsibility and learned from.
âThat experience informs my conviction that clarity matters now more than ever, at a time when confusion and the distortion of truth are doing real harm â even when speaking plainly is not without consequence. It requires responsibility from all of us. We cannot answer injustice with more injustice. If we do, we donât end the cycle, we extend it. The only way to break it is to refuse to pass it on.â

The Duke adds that while there is âdeep and justified alarmâ about the scale of death in Gaza and Lebanon, âwe have seen how legitimate protest against state actions in the Middle East does exist alongside hostility toward Jewish communities at homeâ.
Harry, who does not mention Israel by name in the piece, added: âNothing, whether criticism of a government or the reality of violence and destruction, can ever justify hostility toward an entire people or faith.â
However, he also stressed the importance of âlegitimateâ criticism when states act without accountability and in ways that raise serious questions under international humanitarian lawâ.
