The rabbi of Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation in Manchester stated the Jewish community there feels less secure now than after a synagogue attack in 2025. Rabbi Daniel Walker noted rising antisemitism and a lack of action on "core problems" have made British Jews feel more vulnerable. Two men were killed and three injured in the 2 October 2025 attack.
