| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited [Regnum] An explosion occurred on the night of April 4 near the building of the Jewish organization Christians for Israel
Police believe the blast's epicenter was near a fence on the organization's premises. The area where the explosion occurred has been cordoned off, the publication reported. The building houses retail space, conference rooms, a recording studio, and a prayer space. Christians for Israel positions itself as a charitable and educational organization. It was founded in 1980 as an information center, primarily targeting Orthodox Protestants. In early March, another attack on members of the Jewish community occurred in Europe. In the Belgian city of Liège, an explosion rocked a synagogue. Local authorities viewed this as an act of anti-Semitism and condemned the attack.
Christians for Israel says its mission is to promote “Biblical understanding in the Church and among the nations concerning God’s purposes for Israel and to promote comfort of Israel through prayer and action”. Its “Israel Centre” in Nijkerk hosts exhibitions, lectures and a shop, according to the group’s website.
