what are doctors saying about this man's condition, brynn?> it was a very emotional press conference by this family, and they just keep saying doctors don't have any hope for their father. he is 72 years old, one of the victims from saturday's attack and the one most critically injured. he's in a coma. he hasn't come out of this coma ever since this attack happened. he had a surgery earlier today to help him eat and breathe, but again, doctors are not giving a good prognosis. i want to show you a picture that the family released. it's pretty graphic, so i want to warn your viewers, but you can look yourself at the injuries this man sustained in this attack. he was stabbed through the neck. he also shalt tered his arm. his family said it was a difficult decision to release that photo, to make it public, but so many people were asking how is he doing, what's going on, and nobody has a grasp on how horrific this attack was, and that's why they decided as a family to release this picture. it was emotional for this family to come out and talk toda

cnn's brynn gingras is in new york.aid no hate, no fear. >> reporter: you can hear the speaker behind me. it started at 11:00 this morning. there was an estimated 25,000 people who gathered in lower manhattan and crossed the brooklyn bridge where we know there has been a drastic rise in anti-semitic attacks even just within the last month. as you even pointed out, everyone here says they stand together against hate, against the attacks that happened here in brooklyn, the incident that happened in jersey city, and as you said, a week ago in monsey, new york. everyone said they're together to support each other. it doesn't matter what your faith or background is, they stand together against hate. i think the most incredible thing, fred, these aren't just people from new york out here. we've seen people from canada, connecticut, philadelphia, cleveland. i want you to hear why some of those people got on a plane, got on buses at midnight just to be here. >> it's phenomenal. and it's not surprising. there is a lot of people

let me bring in cnn national correspondent, brynn gingras. >> we're getting an update from the fbi, a news conference one month after this attack happened and those explosives, which you're describing, what we're hearing from them is they had enough explosives in the u-haul that was found at that scene to do enough damage to five football fields long. just with one explosive device. we're also learning they had even more explosives that they could have made, actually another bomb. so it gives you an idea of the scope of how serious of an incident this was and how much damage really it could have caused. of course, we already know that four people were killed in that incident, in that jersey city kosher market on december 10th. a little bit more about their motivations. officials are saying they did have anti-semitic motivations as well as a hatred towards law enforcement. and interestingly enough, we knew that those two killed a police officer, a jersey city police officer, detective joseph s.e.a.l seals on the way before doing this attack. if that hadn't happened, they may have possi
