The Saeima Foreign Affairs Committee strongly and categorically condemns the terrorist attacks on Israel by Hamas. Such indiscriminate violence and targeting of civilians is despicably cruel and barbaric; it sows unjustifiable inhuman destruction. It is terrorism at its most horrific.
The Saeima Foreign Affairs Committee reaffirms its unwavering support for Israel and stands in solidarity with Israel and its society on this difficult day. Israel has the right to self-defence and the right and duty to defend its citizens and its country against deadly acts of terrorism.
The Saeima Foreign Affairs Committee expresses its condolences to the families of the victims of the attacks and wishes a speedy recovery to all those injured.
