Attacked Manchester synagogue's repairs not covered by insurance

The Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Manchester faces substantial repair costs after a terrorist attack that insurance will not cover, impacting the Jewish communitys security and resilience.

• The attack on the Synagogue occurred when Jihad Al-Shamie drove his car into a security guard, resulting in the deaths of Melvin Cravitz and Adrian Daulby.
• Following the incident, the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation learned that their insurance policy does not cover acts of terrorism, complicating the repair process.
• The attack coincided with Yom Kippur, a significant day for Jews, heightening concerns about community safety and the implications for future gatherings at the Synagogue.
