Boston rabbi concerned about escalating conflict in Israel “there is great uncertainty”

BOSTON – Tuesday’s airstrike in Israel put Jews across the globe on heightened alert including those right here in Greater Boston.

Rabbi Elaine Zecher leads the congregations at Temple Israel of Boston. Rabbi Zecher has family in Israel and called them in the time between when the missiles were fired, and the Iron Dome activated.

“I let them know I am thinking of them,” Zecher said. “That I am praying for their safety and making sure they are secure.
