Israeli United Nations Ambassador Danny Danon has responded to the truck attack in Jerusalem by saying, "Today we saw evil and cruelty incarnate. This murderous attack is a direct result of murderous Palestinian incitement. I call on the Secretary General and the Security Council to condemn this terror attack immediately."

Danon added, "The fanatical terrorism that struck in Berlin and Nice did not discriminate in its victims, and neither did the attack in our capital of Jerusalem today."
