KOLKATA: Three 19th-century synagogues in central Kolkata with Muslim caretakers have had to heed an advisory from the "authorities" and
shut their gates to anyone who isn't Jewish after protests in the city over Israel's military operation against Hamas in Gaza.Some
protesters waving Palestine flags were also seen in the stands during a World Cup match at the Eden Gardens, sources said."The three
synagogues are shut for an indefinite period, or until further orders...We understand how sensitive things are
We would not like to do anything that will create tension," said David Ashkenazy, president of the board that runs Beth El Synagogue and
also associated with the Magen David and Neveh Shalome synagogues.Even Jewish people need prior permission from the boards managing these
synagogues before visiting them
