Newsroom October 2 10:16Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has condemned the barbaric attack outside a Jewish synagogue in Manchester, while the foreign minister blamed London, for failing to prevent the rise of anti-Semitism in the country.
“Israel shares the anguish of the British Jewish community following the brutal terrorist attack committed in Manchester.
As I warned at the UN, weakness in the face of terrorism only feeds it.
Only strength and unity can defeat it,” Netanyahu said in the statement issued by his office.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said he was “stunned by the deadly attack” near the Heaton Park synagogue on the morning of “the holiest day for the Jewish people, Yom Kippur.”“The truth must be told: obvious and widespread anti-Semitic and anti-Israel incitement, as well as calls for support for terrorism, have recently become commonplace on the streets of London, in cities across the UK and on its universities,” he said in a post on the X platform.
