Manchester in Mourning: Terror Strikes Synagogue on Yom Kippur
Two people were killed and at least four others were seriously injured in a terrorist attack outside a synagogue in Manchester, England, on Yom Kippur. A car was deliberately driven into pedestrians and a man was stabbed, leaving a trail of blood and destruction.
"It was like a scene from a horror movie," said an eyewitness. Armed officers shot and killed the suspected assailant, who is believed to have been acting alone.
The British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, condemned the attack and pledged to support the Jewish community. "Terrorism has no place in our society," he said.
The attack has raised concerns about the safety of Jewish communities in the UK. The Board of Deputies of British Jews has called for increased security measures to protect synagogues and other Jewish institutions.
"This attack is a stark reminder of the reality of anti-Semitism in our society," said the Board's chairman, Marie van der Zyl.
