New images out of Kiryas Joel show hundreds of people together without masks.
The photos were captured at the main synagogue in Kiryas Joel on Sunday.

The images appear to show people not following the state's social distancing and mask guidelines.
Houses of worship can currently operate at 50% capacity with congregants 6 feet apart and wearing masks.
