Rishi Sunak has announced £3million of extra funding to protect synagogues, schools and other Jewish community buildings.
The additional funding will be provided to the Community Security Trust , an organisation that protectc British Jews from antisemitism and related threats. It comes after the CST recorded a 400 per cent increase in antisemitic incidents across the UK since Saturday's surprise attack on Israel by Hamas. Sunak said: "This is now the third deadliest terror attack in the world since 1970.
The United Kingdom must and will continue to stand in solidarity with Israel.“At moments like this, when the Jewish people are under attack in their homeland, Jewish people everywhere can feel less safe.“That is why we must do everything in our power to protect Jewish people everywhere in our country. If anything is standing in the way of keeping the Jewish community safe, we will fix it. You have our complete backing.
