Evangelicals are among those expressing their horror after an antisemitic terrorist attack at a synagogue in Manchester.

Two people were killed and four others left in a serious condition following the incident, which took place at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation, a large Ashkenazi Orthodox synagogue founded in 1935.

The perpetrator was shot dead by officers, Greater Manchester Police said. Two other individuals have also since been arrested. The attack took place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
