Investigators say fire at West Bank synagogue was arson

Fire investigators say last night’s blaze at the synagogue of the Givat Sorek outpost in the West Bank was started deliberately. The findings are based on evidence at the scene.

The fire gutted the tent that served as a makeshift place of worship and burned the holy books inside.
