This was reported on May 30 by the press service of the Chief Rabbi of Russia. It is noted that this happened on the afternoon of May 29. The attacker arrived at the building by taxi. He took a hammer out of his bag, threatened the guard and tried to get inside. At the same time, a children's club was in session in the synagogue at that time. “The unknown person, despite the efforts of the guard, broke down the gate with hammer blows and kicks, entered the yard, but, fortunately, was unable to get into the building and the children and teachers in the building were not harmed,” RIA Novosti quoted the press service representative as saying. Before the police arrived, the man threw stones at the synagogue building. He did not shout any slogans, but he filmed his actions on his phone. As a result, he was detained. |
