Our thoughts are with the Israeli people following the terrorist attack in Jerusalem. It is particularly tragic on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. We condemn this attack and express our condolences to the victims’ families. May their memory be a blessing.

Remembrance is our eternal obligation, but without action it becomes a hollow ritual. We must never be indifferent to human cruelty and human suffering. On #HolocaustRemembranceDay we recommit to uniting against antisemitism and acting against all forms of hatred. #NeverAgain
