UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his wife Victoria visited the scene of the Manchester synagogue car ramming and stabbing attack that left two people dead and three injured. Britain is on heightened alert to ensure the Jewish community's safety after the attack outside the synagogue.

Police shot dead the suspect in the northwest English city. He is identified as a UK citizen of Syrian origin. UK authorities swiftly declared the attack a "terrorist incident", staged as Jewish communities around the world marked Yom Kippur, the holiest holiday in the Jewish calendar.
