FOUR DEAD IN SHOOTING AT JEWISH MUSEUM IN BRUSSELS – ISRAELI COUPLE AMONG THOSE KILLED: Four people died in a shooting incident Saturday at the Jewish Museum in central Brussels. Two of the four fatalities were an Israeli couple in their 50's from Tel Aviv, the Foreign Ministry confirmed Sunday. Police have no suspects in custody. The gunman arrived at the museum at around 15:50 carrying a backpack, entered the building then opened fire before fleeing in a car. The shooter aimed for the victims’ throats and heads, according to witnesses. Belgian authorities believe the attack was motivated by antisemitism. Brussels Mayor Yvan Mayeur said the four victims had been caught up in a terrorist act. "It's clearly extremely serious," he was quoted as saying, "and on the Jewish Museum too, which isn't a coincidence. The museum is located in a bustling area of the Belgian capital. About half of Belgium's 42,000-strong Jewish community lives in Brussels. Security around all Jewish institutions in the country has been raised to the highest level, and PM Elio Di Rupo was meeting with police and senior officials to discuss the situation.

Pray for the comforting of families who lost loved ones in this brutal attack. Pray also for the protection of Brussels’ Jewish community against further antisemitic violence - and for the terrorist murderers still at large to be apprehended and brought to justice.
