The number of documented and announced attacks against mosques in France since 2019 has reached dozens. The official policy of the state to dissolve and marginalize official Islamic institutions complicates the situation.
The head of the French Council of the Islamic Religion said that in 2021, about 70 threats were made against Muslims, but they did not report them. The number of attacks against Muslims is likely to rise, as the number of victims is not known, according to a report by Mediapart. The report was published in the French newspaper Le Monde.
