Jewish Federations of North America are heartbroken and outraged by today’s horrific terrorist attack in Jerusalem, which claimed the lives of six innocent Israelis and injured many more who were simply trying to ride the bus. We extend our deepest condolences to the families of those murdered and pray for the full and speedy recovery of the wounded.

 
At this moment of grief, we stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Israel. An attack on Israelis going about their daily lives is an attack on the Jewish people.

 
Jewish Federations reaffirm our unwavering solidarity with Israel as it confronts ongoing terror and as its citizens continue to demonstrate extraordinary resilience in the face of hatred and violence.
