International Leaders Condemn Jerusalem Terror Attack

Global leaders and international bodies strongly condemned Monday’s terror attack at Ramot Junction in Jerusalem, where six civilians were murdered and more than 20 wounded in a brutal shooting by Palestinian terrorists.

The United Arab Emirates Ministry of Foreign Affairs extended condolences to “the state of Israel and its friendly people,” emphasizing its “permanent rejection of all forms of terrorism and violence aimed at destabilizing the area.”

French President Emmanuel Macron expressed sorrow and reiterated the need for a political solution in the region. “Only a political solution will bring back peace and stability for all in the region,” he said in a statement of condemnation.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez also condemned the violence and confirmed that Spanish-Israeli citizen Yaakov Pinto was among the dead. “Violence is not the way. We are convinced that peace in the Middle East is possible,” he posted on X.

The U.S. State Department said it was "closely monitoring the situation," condemned the "cruel terror attack," and reaffirmed its support for Israel. “Our prayers are with the victims and their families,” the statement read.

Taiwan’s representative office in Israel also extended condolences and condemned violence against civilians, calling for the swift recovery of the wounded.

The attack occurred early Monday when two terrorists opened fire at a crowded bus station in Jerusalem’s Ramot neighborhood. The gunmen were shot dead by police and armed civilians at the scene. Share this article or subscribe to our newsletter for updates.
