Knesset Speaker Yoel (Yuli) Edelstein spoke over the phone with Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Paul Ryan, and expressed his sorrow following the Orlando terror attack.
“In my name, and in the name of all members of the Israeli Knesset, I would like to express my condolences and share in the great suffering in light of the tragedy that hit you and the death of innocents.”
“Terror hits everywhere and does not differentiate between Orlando and Tel Aviv. To my great dismay, the nation of Israel knows all too well the feeling of pain and fury caused by these events. We can do nothing else other than to join hands in the war against global terror,” Edelstein added.
