President Rivlin commented on developments in the investigation of the murder of Ori Ansbacher saying, “Personally and on behalf of all Israelis, I would like to thank the security forces for capturing the despicable terrorist who murdered Ori Ansbacher.

We will not be deterred and we will not cease our uncompromising fight against terrorism. We will seek out the perpetrators and their associates until we find them and punish them to the fullest extent of the law, in every place and wherever they hide from us.

Tonight, too, we send our prayers of consolation the Ansbacher family and to the whole community of Tekoa for the shining light that has been extinguished by a vile hand, and for the great void that Ori – good hearted and generous of spirit – leaves behind.

"May her memory be a blessing.”
