A major terror incident struck Manchester on Yom Kippur when a man drove a car into worshippers outside the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue before stabbing victims. Four people were injured before armed officers fatally shot the suspect. Greater Manchester Police declared ‘Operation Plato,’ the UK’s national response to large-scale terror attacks. Authorities confirmed the situation is under control, while Prime Minister Keir Starmer expressed outrage and will chair an emergency COBRA meeting. The attack has shocked Britain’s Jewish community.
