"The British authorities have failed to take necessary measures to stop this toxic wave of antisemitism", the minister writes on the platform X after Thursday's attack on a synagogue in Manchester.
The attack occurred in connection with a prayer session during the Jewish holiday Yom Kippur and is being investigated as a terrorist act. Two people died and three are being treated for serious injuries after the perpetrator drove into people and then attacked with a knife. The man, who had a fake bomb belt on him, was shot to death by the police.
The Chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth Ephraim Mirvis also calls the attack a result of "an incessant wave of Jew-hatred".
