Jewish institutions nationwide are bracing for bomb threats and other attacks after the Hamas terrorist invasion of southern Israel.
In New York and Los Angeles, police confirmed increased patrols and police presence at synagogues and other Jewish facilities.
In an address Tuesday from the White House, President Biden promised to increase federal security protection for houses of worship, including synagogues and related facilities. “Everybody just knew exactly what to do. They calmly exited the building, and went to our evacuation spot,” Rabbi Spector said.
Roughly 40 miles north of Kol Ami, Congregation Brith Sholem in Ogden received a bomb threat via email, said Janice Ward, the congregation’s president.
