Britain's King Charles Visits Manchester Synagogue Attack Site, Meets Grieving Jewish Community

LONDON — The UK’s King Charles III visited the synagogue in Manchester on Monday where two Jewish worshipers were killed earlier this month during an attack by a man who told police he was acting for Islamic State. Charles, 76, traveled to the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in the Crumpsall district of Manchester to show support to those who had been affected by the attack, and to the wider Jewish community. Charles was seen being shown floral tributes left at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation by Rabbi Daniel Walker. He then met community leaders. Many community members welcomed the monarch. “I’ve come here to see other people who care about what’s happened and to know that it still matters to people in the UK,” Yakov Schleider, 15, told the BBC. “For the king to be here, it shows me that the UK is upset about this attack,” he added. Two men, Adrian Daulby, 53, and Melvin Cravitz, 66, were killed in the incident which took place during Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. After the attack, Charles said he was “deeply shocked and saddened,” and during his visit to the synagogue he met some of those who had been inside when it took place. Jihad Al-
