A firebomb was thrown at two Israeli yeshiva students in Midtown Manhattan in an incident being investigated as a hate crime.
The attack, which occurred on Friday, was reported in New York media on Sunday morning.
The students, both 19, are studying at a Brooklyn yeshiva for one year, and often visit Jewish-owned businesses in the area to call on people to perform mitzvahs, the New York Post reported, citing community leaders.
The students, one of whom only speaks Hebrew, were not injured.
