The fire thankfully did not cause any serious injuries, nor did it damage any sifrei Torah of seforim. One man was treated for smoke inhalation.
The fire began in the shul’s kitchen and firefighters were forced to evacuate the shul as they fought to contain the blaze to the kitchen area and get it under control.
The cause of the fire was unknown.
THE SHUL HAS STARTED AN EMERGENCY CHESED FUND TO HELP THEM REBUILD FOLLOWING THE DAMAGE

So sad. Its crazy how so many “giezors raw” are happening now. With the current situation in E”Y. Now this Shuls are a Mikdash Miat. This is no simple fire!!! Even if the cause is, Hashem runs this world to the last detail.
All so want to point out. That i’m sure the victim doesn’t want his face or picture posted when he’s in that state.
