An arson fire was set at the largest yeshiva in Russia just hours before the onset of Pesach. Swastikas were also sprayed on the Toras Chaim.
Olga Esaulova, a spokeswoman for Moscow’s chief rabbi, was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying the fire was set in a storage area for kosher meat and that swastikas were drawn at the yeshiva’s entrance.
There were about 60 students, rabbis and guests in the building at the time, the state news agency RIA-Novosti reported. No one was injured.
