Leaders of Britain's Charedi community have urged David Cameron to do more to help Syrian refugees.
Orthodox social action charities Interlink and Agudas Yisroel, alongside rabbis from the North London Muslim Jewish forum, welcomed the prime minister’s commitment for the UK to take in 20,000 refugees from camps over the next five years.
But in a letter to Mr Cameron, they said: “Whilst we commend the Prime Minister for his efforts, we would strongly support further initiatives addressing the humanitarian crisis unfolding before our eyes.”
The letter, signed by Rabbis Avraham Pinter and Herschel Gluck, added: “60,000 members of our community in Britain today are the descendants of refugees or Holocaust survivors, or were refugees themselves.
