Muslims are questioning their freedom in Germany after a mosque under construction was vandalized late Wednesday by assailants writing racist-Islamophobic slogans on its walls.

Three attacks targeting mosques in Germany since Sept. 25 triggered concerns on rising Islamophobia in the country where xenophobic and Islamophobic movements have gained popularity since a recent influx of refugees.

The latest target of unknown assailants was a mosque under construction in Herringen, a small town in the North Rhein Westphalia state. 

Suspects spray painted anti-Islamic on the walls of the unfinished mosque, which also runs mosques in Dresden and Bebra.
