PROSPECT HEIGHTS, Brooklyn (WABC) –

Disturbing hate messages were discovered on Thursday night in the Brooklyn Synagogue, the latest in a series of disturbing anti-Semitic incidents across the country.

The graffiti inside the Union Temple on Eastern Parkway at Prospect Heights indicate "Kill all Jews" and "Hitler", as well as other horribly offensive terms.

Police said that part was written in black marker inside a stairwell, and vandalism forced the cancellation of a political event because people felt threatened.

As a result, a "Get out the Vote" event organized by Broad City actress Globe Liana was canceled.

Mayor Bill de Blasio said that graffiti was the most vile form of hatred and that the NYPD would find the perpetrators and hold them accountable.

The NYPD said half of the hate crimes committed in the city were directed against Jews and that the number of incidents has increased this year.

Earlier this week, Eyewitness News published a report on swastikas and the word N drawn on brown stones from Garden Place.

Until now, there has been no arrest in the latter case.

Jewish leaders are calling on people of all faiths to join them in attending Shabbat services to help the victims of Pittsburgh.

It was the worst attack against the Jewish people in American history.
