Following the alarming uptick in anti-Semitic attacks, Jews in Rockland County have begun to train in firearms and self defense.

A recent event took place at Congregation Achdus Yisroel at 9 Ladentown Road in Pamona Heights.

The training was provided by Cherev Gidon Israeli Tactical Training Academy, and included an armed response to active shooter course, using rifles, pistols and shotguns.

The class also covered gun laws, weapons use and tactics, and counter-terror methods for defense of a synagogue against an armed attacker.
