Our hearts are shattered. Yesterday, the bodies of six Hamas-held hostages were recovered by Israeli forces in Rafah, among them was Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin. We grieve with the families during this unimaginable time. May their memories forever be a blessing.

We emphatically condemn these attacks and urge officials to prosecute the perpetrators to the fullest. We must continue our commitment to the security of Jewish communities around the world in their fight against antisemitism and violence. (2/2) jta.org/2024/11/07/glo…

We are deeply alarmed by the violent mob attacks against Israeli citizens in Amsterdam who were simply attending a soccer match. As we near the anniversary of Kristallnacht, this incident evokes troubling reminders of history’s darkest moments. (1/2)

May their memories forever be a blessing.
