(JTA) — A touching moment offered a glimmer of hope in Manchester, England, where a bomber killed at least 22 people on Monday in a suspected terror attack.
On Wednesday, Renee Black, a 93-year-old Jewish woman, traveled together with Sadiq Patel, a Muslim man, to Manchester from the nearby town of Blackburn to mourn the victims of the attack.
The pair were captured on video and in photos talking and joining together in prayer next to a makeshift memorial in Albert Square in the city’s center.
