This morning’s fire at the Adass Israel Synagogue in Ripponlea has devastated Melbourne’s Jewish community and caused deep angst.
Amidst the worst levels of antisemitism in living memory, the community needs clear answers as soon as possible.
Nothing justifies the destruction of a place of worship and those responsible should face the full force of the law.
This situation demands meaningful action. What is Premier Jacinta Allan going to do to ensure the safety of Melbourne’s Jewish community?
The Liberals and Nationals stand with our Jewish community at this difficult time and support Victoria Police to find those responsible and bring them to justice.
Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is urged to contact Victoria Police.
