Eight years ago today, a gunman opened fire during Shabbat morning services at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, killing 11 worshippers and injuring seven. This attack remains the deadliest antisemitic incident in U.S. history. The victims, ranging in age from 54 to 97, included members of three congregations: New Light, Dor Hadash, and Tree of Life. The perpetrator, motivated by antisemitic beliefs, targeted the synagogue due to its support for refugees and immigrants. The attack has had a lasting impact on the Pittsburgh Jewish community and has sparked increased efforts to combat antisemitism across the country.
