Bennett offers condolences, help to Barcelona Jewish community
Education Minister Naftali Bennett, who also holds the diaspora affairs portfolio, issues a statement on the Barcelona terror attack:
A few minutes ago I spoke with the head of the Spanish Jewish community about the horrific terror attack that took in Barcelona this evening. I conveyed to him my condolences and prayers for the wounded, and made it clear the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs would aid the community in any way possible.
At times like this it is important to understand Islamic terror is attacking the values of freedom and democracy, in Barcelona, London, Paris and Jerusalem. The West must stand strong in the face of terror and defeat it wherever needed.
