During a Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony, Jerusalem Mayor Moshe Lion reacts to the Palestinian terror attack in the city this morning, in which two Jewish men were shot and injured while heading to prayers.
“The terror attack this morning occurred several blocks from here and was directed against Jews, who were shot purely because they were Jews,” Lion says at the ceremony at Safra Square.
“On this sacred day, we shall remember the heroism of our brothers and sisters, and we shall never stand helpless in the face of those who seek to harm us.”
