Police have launched an urgent investigation after cars were damaged, with one set on fire, and anti-Semitic graffiti spray painted on buildings in Sydney’s east.
Emergency services were called to Magney Street, in Woollahra, at about 1am on Wednesday following reports a vehicle was on fire.
NSW Fire and Rescue crews worked to extinguish the blaze, while police assessed the damage.
Another vehicle, two buildings and the footpath along Magney Street had also been vandalised.
Vandals spray painted anti-Semitic graffiti, writing ‘kill Israiel(sic)’ on the wall behind the burnt out car.
A crime scene has been established and the graffiti has since been cleaned off the wall.
Police have launched an investigation into the vandalism and wish to speak to two people believed to have been in the vicinity at the time.
They are described as being between 15 to 20 years of age, of slim build, wearing face coverings and dark clothing.

Anyone with information is being urged to contact Eastern Suburbs Police Area Command or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
It marks the second anti-Semitic attack in the same exclusive suburb after several cars were vandalised with anti-Israel slurs, one of which was also set on fire.
Police found up to a dozen cars graffitied with anti-Israel messages on November 21 after emergency services responded to a car on fire.
Multiple cars, which were parked along Wellington Street, Tara Street, Fullerton Street and Ocean Street, were covered in white spray paint that read ‘f**k Israel’.
The door of a unit complex in Ocean Street was also spray painted with the anti-Israel slogans.
Celebrity chef Matt Moran’s Chiswick restaurant – which is co-owned by the Jewish CEO of Solotel Group Elliot Solomon – was also vandalised.

The letters ‘PKK’ were also seen on multiple cars and the windows of Chiswick.
PKK could refer to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party which some countries, including Australia, have designated a terrorist organisation.
It comes after a Jewish human rights organisation issued an urgent travel warning to Jews or Israelis not to travel to Australia following a slew of anti-Semitic firebombings in Melbourne.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center issued the warning on Tuesday claiming the advice was ‘a result of the failure of Australian authorities to stand up against persistent demonisation, harassment and violence against Jews and Jewish institutions in Australia’.
