Diaspora Affairs Minister Nachman Shai responds to the freeing of the hostages from a Texas synagogue, saying the attack shows the need for “adequate protection” for Jewish communities around the world.

“The freeing of the hostages in Texas is a blessed relief and Israel is grateful to the security services and the governor for the successful operation. This incident demonstrates again the dangers Diaspora Jewish communities can face and the need to provide them with adequate protection,” Shai tweets.
