Nesbitt condemns attacks on Synagogue

Ulster Unionist Party Leader, Mike Nesbitt MLA has condemned attacks on the Synagogue in North Belfast.

Mr Nesbitt said:

"This smashing of windows at the Synagogue on Somerton Road should be condemned by all, it is totally unacceptable that any place of worship should be targeted.

"The Jewish community have been valuable members of our society for many years. We offered refuge during the Second World War to many fleeing the Holocaust and it is abhorrent that the Synagogue has been the target of this hate crime.   

"I would appeal to anyone who has any information that could help the PSNI to catch those responsible to contact them immediately.
