Two “Molotov cocktails” were hurled at the B’nai Israel Synagogue here before dawn yesterday breaking two windows. There were no injuries and property damage was limited. The Instituto Hebreo Dr. Weizmann, a Jewish school, received fire damage and a number of broken windows when a “Molotov cocktail” was hurled at it last Sunday from a speeding car.
