NEW YORK - The World Jewish Congress strongly condemns the terror barrage being launched against Israel from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip and urges the international community to recognize that Israel is under attack.
This morning, dozens of rockets and mortar shells were fired against Israeli communities, including kindergartens, homes, and nature reserves. In parallel, Israel identified a terror tunnel from Gaza, measuring 2 km long and infiltrating Israeli territory by 900 meters. The world must open its eyes and realize that Israel under attack and its civilians are being indiscriminately targeted.
We urge the international community to hold Hamas fully responsible for inciting this violence, and for providing the systemic infrastructure that enables such terror to continue unhindered.
