Three of the victims were Americans with dual Israel-U.S. passports. According to the New York Times, the victims were killed during the middle of morning prayers and at least a dozen worshipers were injured. Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6) issues the following statement: “The attack on rabbis and worshippers inside a Jerusalem synagogue is an inhuman act of barbarism that deserves the condemnation of the world. We stand in mourning with the people of Israel and the families of the victims, including the three Americans who were killed. “The murdering of innocent people gathered to pray is an affront to civilization. However we know that this act of terrorism will only strengthen the resolve of the Israeli people and the bond between our two countries. This attack is a sobering reminder of the importance of a robust war on terrorism and the need for all parties in the region to respect Israel’s right to exist.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
