Two people have been killed and four wounded outside a Manchester synagogue packed with worshippers on a Jewish holiday, United Kingdom (UK) police said, adding they shot dead the suspect in the “terrorist attack”.

Two other people were arrested after the car and stabbing attack, which occurred as Jewish communities around the world mark the Yom Kippur holiday, the holiest in the Jewish calendar.

Police said the two dead victims were Jewish, and declared the attack a “terrorist incident” in the northwest English city.

They revealed they had “established the identity” of the dead suspect, but it was too soon to release it publicly.

The attack also came days before the second anniversary of Hamas’ October 7, 2023 raids on Israel which sparked a fierce offensive in Gaza, inflaming passions in Britain.

“It’s a very sad day. I live here for like seven years; I’ve seen nothing but kindness and love from the Jewish community. Very, very good people,” said engineer Sam Martin, 41.
