EU, UK envoys condemn Bnei Brak terror attack

British Ambassador to Israel Neil Wigan and EU Ambassador to Israel Dimiter Tzantchev are among the first to condemn tonight’s terror attack in Bnei Brak.

“I’m shocked by the series of terrorist attacks that have befallen Israel in the past week – Beer Sheva, Hadera and now Bnei Brak, close to my home. My condolences to all the families of the victims and my wishes for a speedy recovery to the wounded. Britain condemns these attacks and stands by Israel,” says Wigan.

“Another despicable terror attack, which claimed more innocent lives. My thoughts are with the families of the victims & injured. The EU unequivocally condemns such senseless violence! We stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel in these difficult times. Violent extremism will be defeated,” Tzantchev says.
