UK’s King Charles visits scene of Manchester synagogue attack

The UK’s King Charles visits the scene of a deadly terror attack on a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur.

Charles is seen being shown floral tributes left at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation by Rabbi Daniel Walker. He then met community leaders.

Many community members welcome the monarch.

“I’ve come here to see other people who care about what’s happened and to know that it still matters to people in the UK,” Yakov Schleider, 15, tells the BBC.

“For the King to be here, it shows me that the UK is upset about this attack,” he says.

Adrian Daulby, 53, and Melvin Cravitz, 66, were both killed, and three others were seriously wounded in the attack on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar. One of the victims was likely killed by a stray police bullet.

The attacker, identified as Jihad al-Shamie, 35, was also shot dead by police.
