HEARTBREAKING: Stacey Solomon ISSUES Stark Statement after brutal 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 in Manchester

Stacey Solomon has issued a heartbreaking statement following the tragic Manchester synagogue 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬. On Thursday (October 2), two people were killed and four others were hospitalised in a serious condition after a car and knife 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 outside a synagogue in Manchester. The 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 came on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.

Greater Manchester Police said officers were called to the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue at 9.30am. It is understood that a vehicle drove into pedestrians, and one person was stabbed. Armed police declared a major incident and opened fire five minutes later, k!lling the suspect.

Clips shared on social media showed police with guns pointed at a person on the tarmac as a bystander could be heard saying the man had a bomb and was trying to push a button.

Police have since declared the 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 a terrorist incident and have made two further arrests. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has arrived at Downing Street to chair a Cobra committee emergency meeting.

The tragic incident has sparked nationwide backlash, and now Stacey Solomon has spoken out online. Taking to Instagram, the mum-of-five shared a “heartbreaking” statement as she passed on her sympathies to the victim’s families.

She wrote: “It is heartbreaking to hear of the 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 at a synagogue in Manchester on Yom Kippur. My thoughts & prayers are with everyone affected.

“I’m also thinking of anyone right now who feels scared for themselves & their loved ones just because of who they are. Being Jewish feels scary & that is heartbreaking.

“It goes without saying, although I’ve said this before, my thoughts are also with the innocent people in Gaza. Being proudly Jewish & being against the horrific 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 today does not cancel the other.

“I realise no matter what I say, someone somewhere won’t like it. But all I really have to say is that none of this is okay [white heart emoji].” But she isn’t the only famous face to have reacted to the devastating 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬.

Good Morning Britain presenter Rob Rinder took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to issue an urgent plea to Brits up and down the country. He wrote: “On the holiest day of the year, we are 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬ed at a Manchester synagogue.

“Our children walk to school behind barbed wire protected by guns. Yet some still answer this atrocity with ‘what about…’ This is my country, the sanctuary my grandfather found after surviving the Holocaust, promising freedom under the rule of law.

“Today I pray for the victims, thank the brave who responded, and wonder if that promise is fading. A community this small cannot stand alone. If you believe in Britain (wherever you’re from & whatever your faith), you must stand with us. Many Jews cannot imagine a future here, and history tells us what follows when that happens.”
