A Jewish teacher was stabbed in Marseille Wednesday night by three ISIS supporters.

Tzion Saadon, 57, who teaches history at a Jewish day school in the southern French city, sustained stab wounds in an arm and leg.

The attack was interrupted when a car drove up to the scene, possibly saving Saadon's life.

One of the attackers was wearing an ISIS T-shirt. The trio uttered anti-Semitic slurs and praised a homegrown French Islamic terrorist who killed seven people in 2012.

A few weeks ago, a rabbi was also knifed in Marseille.
