Members of London's Jewish community are "appalled" by the murder of Jewish children and an adult killed in a Toulouse Jewish school in France, in a shooting this morning.

The victims were named as teacher Yonatan Sandler, 30, with his two sons Aryeh, three, and Gavriel, six, and Miriam Montenago, aged eight, daughter of the school's principal Rabbi Yaakov Monsonego. Mr Sandler is said to be a Israeli, a former resident of Kiryat Yovel, Jerusalem.

The British Board of Jewish Deputies said:

"We are shocked and appalled by the senseless murder of four people, including three children, outside the Ozar HaTorah Jewish school in Toulouse, France.  This attack is a terrible reminder of the threat which minorities, across Europe, face from extremists of all political persuasions. All right minded people must unite to reject their baseless hatred and bring whoever is responsible for this attack to justice."
