All hostages are released from standoffs in US synagogues

All the remaining hostages were held in a synagogue at Colleyville, Texas, released safely on Saturday night more than ten hours after a man disturbed religious services and started a tense police.
The man had originally taken four hostages, including Rabbi, in the Congregation of Beth Israel.
A hostage was released without being injured six hours later.
Local reporter said they heard an explosion, maybe flashbangs, and shots shortly before Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced the crisis was over.
“Prayer answers.
All hostages come out of life and safe,” Abbott said on Twitter.
Information about men who have taken their hostages are not immediately available.
The Colleyville Police Department said that first responded to the synagogue with the SWAT team in response to an emergency call that began at around 10:41 a.m.
During Shabbat services, which are being broadcast online.
The FBI negotiator immediately opened contact with the man, who said he wanted to talk to a woman held in a federal prison.
There are no reported injuries and still not clear what weapons, if any, man.
In the first few hours, the man could be heard had a unilateral conversation in what appeared to be a telephone call during Livestream Facebook from the Jewish Synagogue reform service at Colleyville, which is about 16 miles (26 km) northeast of the fort.
Livestream cuts around 3 P.M.
Est (2000 GMT).
Before Livestream ended, the man could sound grumbling and talking about his religion and sister, Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.
The man could be heard repeatedly by saying that he did not want to see anyone injured and that he believed he would die, the newspaper said.
President Joe Biden was briefed in the crisis, and Israeli Prime Minister Naphtali Bennett said on Twitter he prayed for the safety of the hostages.
Barry Klompus, a member of the Congregation since opened in 1999, said he set into Livestream.
“It listens and watches terrible,” Klompus said in a telephone interview.
Even though he could not clearly understand what the man wanted, Kompus believed the man wanted to talk to his sister.
A US official was barked on this issue to ABC News the hostage had claimed to be a brother of Neuroscientist scientist Aafia Siddiqui, who served an 86-year-old prison sentence for his 2010 confidence to shoot to the army and the FBI agent, and that he demanded him to be released.
The authorities have not confirmed the man’s identity, the official said to ABC News.
Siddiqui was detained in a federal prison in the Fort Worth area.
A lawyer represents Siddiqui, Marwa Elbially, told CNN in a statement that the man was not Siddiqui’s brother.
He begged the man to release a hostage, said the Siddiqui family condemned his “cruel” action.
The American-Islamic Relations Council (Liquid), a US Muslim advocacy group, condemned the man’s actions.
“This latest antisemitat attack on Jewish Americans who worship in the synagogue is a pure crime,” Liquid said in a statement.
Klompus said he did not know the previous significant threat to the church.
“We don’t have security officers about the staff but we have what I will say is a very good relationship with the local police,” he said.
