Attacks in Jerusalem leaves five dead

A place of worship turned into a house of horror in Jerusalem today.

Two Palestinian men entered a synagogue and killed five people, including four rabbis, Three of which were Americans.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will respond with force to these attacks. They’ve already ordered the destruction of the homes of the two men they believe were responsible.

The attack this morning is being seen as retaliation for the death of a bus driver on Monday. The Palestinian man was found hanged. Israelis were calling it a suicide, where Palestinians were calling it murder.

It’s just one of many recent events that have been escalating tensions.
