No one was injured in two bomb attacks that exploded near Moscow’s two largest synagogues Saturday night. The attacks did not appear to target the synagogues themselves, according to Russian officials, but Jewish leaders were quoted as saying the attacks were aimed at the synagogues, and that only increased security prevented more damage and injuries. One of the shuls, the Marina Roscha synagogue, has already been damaged by bombs several times earlier this decade.
