Israel today condemned the triple blasts which killed 17 people and injured 133 in the heart of Mumbai last evening.
“The city of Mumbai has once again faced an assault aimed at breaking the spirit of its courageous citizens. Israel stands side by side with India in its relentless struggle against terror and is convinced that the resilience of the Indian people will prevail. These events are once again a reminder to all forward-looking nations that the scourge of terror must be combatted and overcome,” a spokesman of Israel’s foreign affairs ministry said in a release.
“Israel has expressed its solidarity with India and extends its deepest condolences to the victims and their families and offers its full support and assistance to the Government of India,” the release added.
