The city of Oslo decided to permanently close to traffic the street leading to its main synagogue.Ervin Kohn, president of the Jewish Community in Oslo and the deputy director of the Norwegian Center Against Racism, told JTA Thursday that the decision was made following the slaying on February 15 of a guard at the main synagogue of Copenhagen in Denmark.The Jewish community of Norway, which has seen a number of threats in recent years, has long lobbied for the closure, which city official had resisted and termed excessive.“With this change, the security needs of the community are more or less satisfied,” Kohn said.
