Father of Manchester Synagogue Attacker Condemns Heinous Attack Killing Two
Jihad Al-Shamie carried out a deadly attack on a Manchester synagogue, killing two men and injuring others during a Yom Kippur gathering. The attacker used a car to ram into the synagogue grounds and then proceeded to stab worshippers before being shot dead by armed police. His father, Faraj Al-Shamie, a trauma surgeon who has worked in war zones, has publicly condemned his son's actions as a "heinous act" and expressed profound shock and sorrow on behalf of the family, distancing themselves from the attack. The family has requested privacy and emphasized their support and prayers for the victims and their families. Jihad grew up in a largely Jewish community in North Manchester, with family videos showing a seemingly normal childhood. The attack is believed to have been motivated by the conflict in Gaza, though the family strongly rejects any justification for the violence.
