Two more acts of anti-Asian hatred were reported Monday in Manhattan — with the victims attacked with racist epithets, according to police.

The first incident occurred just before 11:30 a.m. Monday at 26th Street and Sixth Avenue, where an unknown man walked up to a 23-year-old woman, kicked her in the right leg and said, “F–k you, you f–king Chinese people, f–k you,” according to the NYPD.

“You f–king Asian. Get the f–k away from me, I’m going to beat the s–t out of you,” he spewed, according to cops.

The man pulled a knife when a good Samaritan jumped in and then took off, police said.

Then, just before 7 p.m. that same day, a man yelled at a 57-year-old Asian woman who was walking with her grandchildren.

“F—king Chinese people!” the man screamed at the intersection of Chambers Street and West Broadway in Tribeca, cops said.

The man tried to touch one grandkid’s head, but the woman pulled the child away and the man took off, police said.

The NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force is investigating both incidents.
