Jewish Voice for Liberation (formerly Jewish Voice for Labour) has issued a statement on the terrorist attack at a synagogue in Manchester, where an attacker killed two people and injured others. Jewish Voice for Liberation (formerly Jewish Voice for Labour) said it is:is saddened and horrified by the abhorrent, murderous attack on Jewish worshippers at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Manchester. Yom Kippur, the day of atonement for our wrongdoings is a day of reflection and a 25 hour fast for observant Jews. The killer clearly targeted Jews on this important day for Jewish people. We note the worrying rise in antisemitism and in Islamophobia both in the UK and far too many other countries.
