Two Jews lost their lives today after a terrorist attack near a synagogue in Manchester, Great Britain.

The attacker also died after being shot dead by police at the scene. Four other people are in hospital with serious injuries. One of the injured is believed to be a security guard.

How did the attack happen?

The attack occurred during Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.

Police were alerted to a car speeding through a crowd of people at around 9:31 a.m., after which the driver got out of the car and attacked them with a knife.

The perpetrator was shot dead about 10 minutes after the incident.

A large number of believers were praying in the synagogue at the time and were kept inside until the situation was neutralized.

Quick police response

The police reacted immediately, as happens in cases of emergency or mass attacks, including terrorist ones, as today's is described.

The area was cordoned off until fire and ambulance services arrived.

Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham said that by around 10:30am everything was calmer, however he appealed for the area to be avoided until further notice.

Police have said they cannot release the name of the perpetrator for security reasons. It is suspected that he was wearing a vest that looked like an explosive device.

What is Yom Kippur?

Yom Kippur is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, known as the day of fasting and repentance, where work is prohibited and devoted only to prayer and reflection.
