Jewish communities across Southern California are remaining vigilant and monitoring security concerns amid Israel tensions.

Rabbi Mendel Lipskier at Chabad of Sherman Oaks hopes the Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel won't translate into trouble here in Southern California. Lipskier said they've been beefing up their security at the Ventura Boulevard synagogue ever since the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7."We have more security cameras. We have more security personnel; have more volunteers and LAPD has really given that extra measure," Lipskier said.

"Alexander Zaystev heads up the security community initiative at the Jewish Federation Los Angeles. He says they can't predict what Israel might do but adds, "We have been monitoring for any potential threats here."But on the other hand, we have to be ready with whatever Israel does if they do anything, right?" since Passover starts Monday at sundown.
