German Chancellor Olaf Scholz laments the “terrible” news that Shani Louk has died, after being grabbed by terrorists in the Hamas-led onslaught in southern Israel three weeks ago.
“This shows the full barbarity behind the Hamas attack — who must be held accountable,” Scholz writes on the social media platform X. “This is terror, and Israel has the right to defend itself.”
