We issued the following statement on our Facebook page and by email to our mailing list.

Muslim Jewish Forum statement on the terrorist attack in Manchester

The Muslim Jewish Forum of Greater Manchester is deeply saddened by the terrorist attack carried out in the city of Manchester last night.

This was an unbelievably evil attack on families and children carried out when they were enjoying themselves at a concert.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the bereaved and injured and all those who were at the Manchester Arena and who will be forever traumatised by what they experienced last night. Our thanks go to the police and emergency services for their speedy responses and to kind taxi drivers, hotels and the general public who helped out those caught up in this tragedy

The perpetrators will not shake our resolve or undermine our way of life. Today, more than ever, Manchester must be a city which is united not only in grief but united against evil, united against fear and united in hope for our future.
