Why do Jews of Syrian ancestry break the matzah in the shape of the Hebrew letters dalet and vav?
If this was a custom, it has died out. As of 2017, there are less than 18 Jews living in Syria, all of them quite elderly. Their only synagogue was burned down on March 31, 2013.
Jews of Syrian ancestry mainly live in Israel and the USA (a total of about 200,000 people), and do not follow this custom.
Answer 2
The above Answer does not address the Question. The dalet and vav, in their total numerical value, represent the ten plagues.
