They resulted in the deaths of over seventy Jews, while over six hundred were injured. The violence occurred without the slightest resistance from the Tsarist authorities, thus highlighting the plight of Russian Jews in international public opinion and focusing world attention on their persecution in Russia. This led Theodor Herzl to propose the Uganda Scheme for a new Jewish settlement. This was an early 20th-century plan to establish a part of British East Africa as a homeland for the Jewish people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian Empire.
