ירי ליד בית הכנסת בבלוויל ביום כיפור – יש פצועים

הערכה

A shooting near a synagogue in Belleville, Ontario, on Yom Kippur, one of the holiest days on the Jewish calendar, puts Canadian Jewish communities on edge. A police officer was wounded and the suspect also hospitalized after officers returned fire. Congregants were evacuated as police and security services worked the scene. The targeting of a religious gathering on its most sacred day, even if the shooter's motive is not yet clear, escalates the security stakes for future holiday services across the country.
