State Department condemns truck ramming attack
The US.State Department condemns the truck-ramming attack that killed four Israeli soldiers in eastern Jerusalem.
“We condemn in the strongest possible terms today’s horrific vehicular attack by a terrorist in Jerusalem. There is absolutely no justification for these brutal and senseless attacks,” Deputy Department Spokesperson Mark Toner says in a statement issued hours after the attack.
“We condemn the glorification of terrorism now or at any time and call on all to send a clear message that terrorism must never be tolerated,” the statement also says.
