Board of Deputies condemns new wave of terror attacks in Israel

The Board of Deputies condemns in the strongest possible terms the wave of terror attacks which took place across Israel yesterday. We extend our condolences to the family of Taylor Allen Force, the US citizen who was murdered in Jaffa.

Senior Vice President Richard Verber said: “We call on the international community and the UK Government in particular to hold the Palestinian Authority to account for its unwillingness to reign in incitement and indeed for its tacit support for terror through its meetings with the families of terrorists. We note that the Palestinian Mission in the UK also remains silent on the wave of violence, and we urge the Foreign & Commonwealth Office to raise this issue as a matter of urgency.”
