The only synagogue in the city of Derbent in Russia is on fire following a deadly and coordinated terrorist attack that also included several other targets in the restive state of Dagestan.
“The synagogue is on fire,” the official news service of the State of Dagestan said in an update about Sunday’s attack, which authorities say is the work of jihadist extremists. Two people, both security officers, are dead as a result of the attack in Derbent, Interfax reports.
Footage of the burning synagogue published on Carmel News, a Telegram channel, shows tall flames completely engulfing the redbrick building of the synagogue and Jewish community center of Derbent, which was built in 2010.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry is not aware of any casualties from the local Jewish community of several hundred people, a spokesperson says in a statement, adding that the synagogue had been “burnt to the ground.”
Look, I already had a mother and father. I don't need you to tell me what I should and shouldn't do. Keep your advice to yourself. You sound like a liberal Karen.
I was speaking as a patriotic American, not as your father, but I think I understand.
