Jewish firefighter runs into burning Long Island Chabad, pulls Torah out as crowd prays outside: ‘A miracle'
A Long Island firefighter ran into a burning Chabad to save a sacred Sefer Torah from the flames on Tuesday — as members of the local Jewish community raced to the scene in prayer. Firefighter Michael Farca, who is Jewish, ran into the Chabad of Greenville to save the sacred religious scroll shortly after a fire tore through the building at about 7 a.m. Farca emerged with the Torah from the smoke-filled doors like a super hero in a movie scene, said Chabad member Igor Shamlov — who said the hero didn't have as much as a scratch on him — or the Torah — in a symbolic moment that brought the crowd to tears, Shamalov said. 3 Farca ran into the Chabad of Greenville to save the sacred religious scroll shortly after a fire tore through the building. Chabad of Greenvale 'The Torah scroll, for us, is priceless,' Shamalov told The Post, — adding that the faithful crowd erupted in tears at the sight. 'It is like saving a human life.' He explained that for the past two days, they have been celebrating Shavuot, which is a Jewish holiday that celebrates the Torah, making the scroll's rescue even more faith-confirming to him and others. The building was scorched, prayer books soaked and blackened, and much of the sanctuary left in ruins — but the Torah survived, which was enough for some to feel optimistic. 'The Torah is more than a book, it's our heart and soul,' said congregant Yuriy Davidov. 'Seeing it carried out safely felt like a miracle.' 3 The building was scorched, prayer books soaked and blackened, and much of the sanctuary was left in ruins. Google Maps Fire departments from across Nassau rushed to the scene around 7 a.m. and managed to stop the blaze from completely gutting the structure. Crews stayed on site for hours hosing down hot spots and assessing the damage. No injuries are reported, and the cause of the blaze is still under investigation, according to first responders. 3 Fire departments from across Nassau rushed to the scene around 7 a.m. Facebook Members said the synagogue suffered damage but not defeat — and that they're already planning to rebuild, calling the Torah's rescue a sign that their faith is stronger than ever. But until the rebuild is complete, Shamalov said they are looking for a new, temporary home to worship.

Siblings' lost school photo pops up 300 miles away
A childhood photo of a brother and sister from Cornwall has been reunited with them after turning up more than 300 miles away in a Lincolnshire charity shop. Chris Kirkum, 32, from Holsworthy, Devon, and his sister Jade Kirkum, 30, from Bude, Cornwall, were just children when they posed for the photo at Bude Junior School. Decades later, the framed picture resurfaced in an Age UK shop in Boston, Lincolnshire where it was posted on a Facebook group for quirky charity shop finds. Ms Kirkum, who was tagged by someone she had gone to school with, said: "I clicked on the link and couldn't believe it, it was us, it was the most bizarre thing." Mr Kirkum, a mechanic, said: "I was doing the washing up when Jade showed me the post. "I couldn't believe it, a photo of us from primary school, just sitting there in a shop hundreds of miles away." Chloe Poole, a local administration assistant, saw the post and retrieved the photo from the shop. She posted it to Ms Kirkum, who received it a few days later. "I'm just glad she got it back," said Ms Poole. "Photos hold so many memories." The siblings do not know how the photo ended up so far from home, but suspect it may have been donated by a family member. "It just shows how powerful social media can be," said Ms Kirkum. "It's amazing this photo found its way back." Follow BBC Cornwall on X, Facebook and Instagram. Follow BBC Devon on X, Facebook and Instagram.

Old protest clip filmed in Pakistan-held Kashmir, not India
"The video is said to be from Jammu and Kashmir," reads the Hindi-language caption to the video filmed from a serpentine mountain road. "After ceasefire, as CRPF and CISF troops were returning from borders, Muslim traitors attacked their convoy with stones," adds the May 26, 2025 Facebook post, using the acronyms for paramilitary organisations functioning under India's Home Ministry (archived link). "In response, the forces opened fire. Chaos ensued, in which nine stone pelters slipped and died. The army recorded the entire incident via drone. Several security vehicles were damaged." Similar posts also rocketed on X and Threads following the worst fighting between India and Pakistan in decades that brought the nuclear-armed rivals to the brink of war. The crisis was triggered by an attack on tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir that New Delhi accuses it neighbour of supporting. Islamabad denies the charge. More than 70 people on both sides died in the four-day military confrontation that ensued, which ended with an unexpected ceasefire on May 10 (archived link). AFP found no official reports the incident described in the false posts occurred following the crisis, and the circulating video has been misrepresented. A reverse image search of keyframes found a longer version published on Facebook on May 15, 2024 (archived link). "Kashmiris Pelting Stones At The Convoy Of Pakistani Security Forces In Pakistan Occupied Kashmir," reads its caption. An AFP journalist watched the video and was able to identify the mountain pass as Lohar Gali in Pakistan-administered Kashmir's Muzaffarabad region. Corresponding visuals on Google Maps confirm the location (archived link). Pakistani news outlets Dawn and Geo News Urdu embedded similar visuals in reports about the incident (archived here and here). According to Dawn newspaper, at least three civilians were killed and several others injured after a paramilitary force operating under the Pakistan Army opened fire at people protesting against rising prices of wheat-flour and inflated electricity bills (archived link). AFP has debunked the barrage of misinformation around the recent South Asia crisis here.
