Connolly Statement on Terror Attack in Jerusalem

Washington, January 9, 2017
Congressman Gerry Connolly released the following statement after four people were killed and many wounded by a truck driven into a crowd of Israeli soldiers in Jerusalem:

“I am horrified by yesterday’s terrorist attack in Jerusalem, which killed four Israeli soldiers and left numerous others gravely injured. The United States must take the threats to Israel seriously and deal with them in a credible manner that both ensures Israel’s security and calls partners to our shared cause. The United States remains steadfast in its commitment to Israel’s security and our hearts go out to the victims and their families.”
