Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotoveli expressed regret over the anti-Semitic attack in Monsey, New York.
"Every Jew is horrified by this brutal attack after lighting the Hanukkah candles. In the face of the darkness that the enemies of Israel are trying to spread during the Hanukkah holiday, a firm hand is needed and a real deterrent against the wave of anti-Semitic incidents. I pray for a quick recovery of the wounded."
