"The events over the weekend in Israel have deeply shaken us all. The innocent lives lost is a heartbreaking reminder of the toll that hatred and violence take on our communities and the world at large. No cause justifies targeting innocent civilians; it only exacerbates pain and division. We must come together, condemn all forms of hatred and violence, and work towards a future where peace and understanding prevail. My thoughts are with all the affected families in my district and across the world as we hope for a swift resolution to this crisis.”
