Board of Deputies Vice President Marie van der Zyl has expressed solidarity with the Manchester Jewish community following arson attacks against kosher restaurants.
She said: “We are deeply concerned about the arson attacks against Manchester Kosher restaurants which police are now treating as ‘antisemitic hate crimes’. I am sure the whole community expresses solidarity with those in Manchester as police continue their investigation. We are united in opposing antisemitism everywhere, and in every form.”
