holy day

The attack, which happened on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, was the highest-profile antisemitic incident to hit the U.K. since the start of the war in Gaza.

Some Jewish people do not access social media or television during this holy day, meaning many may not yet have heard about the attack.

The home secretary said she was "horrified" by news of the attack on the holy day and that she was receiving updates from local police.

On Friday, as the clock ticked down to the beginning of the talks in Alaska, Ukrainians were celebrating a holy day - the day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Holidays — our “holy days” — are meant to meet the moment.
