Family tribute to Liverpool-born Rabbi killed in Jerusalem

The family of Rabbi Avraham Shmuel Goldberg said they could not understand how the men that killed him could have such a disregard for human life.

Mr Goldberg, who was born in Liverpool and holds dual British-Israeli citizenship, was among four people killed after militants stormed a synagogue in Jerusalem. In a statement to ITV News, his immediate family said:
