House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford has issued a statement regarding the recent terrorist attack against Israeli Embassy staffers in Washington, D.C. The incident resulted in the deaths of two individuals, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim.
Crawford described the attack as "evil in its purest form" and expressed condolences to the victims' families and the Jewish community. He emphasized that such acts of violence will not be tolerated by the United States, especially when targeting foreign diplomats.
"The motive was clear and anyone who says otherwise is turning a blind eye," Crawford stated. He assured that the House Intelligence Committee will seek answers about this attack in the coming days.
The attack has raised concerns about security for diplomatic personnel in the U.S., with officials calling for increased measures to prevent similar incidents.
