There was a horrific terror attack in Jerusalem; as many as seven lives have tragically been taken in the attack, HY”D. Reports of up to thirteen injuries were reported. The numbers and info coming in right now are fluid, and details are subject to change.
The attack occurred Friday night in Neve Yaakov, where a terrorist opened fire on those Davening in the Shul.
According to reports, one terrorist was neutralized, and potentially another terrorist may have gotten away, and a massive search is underway.
Please take a moment to say Tehillim for the families and those injured in the massacre.
May Klal Yisroel experience no more pain, and may the families be consoled.
