A man was the victim of an antisemitic assault on a bus in Wales on Monday after his mother reportedly told another passengers of she was born in Israel.

They were travelling on a bus travelling from Barry to Cardiff at around 1.15pm on Monday when they were approached by a man and a woman who asked whether they were Welsh.

The woman from the couple then punched the man, 38, who required hospital treatment for facial injuries.

Witnesses reportedly intervened in support of the victims.
