Jewish Federations of North America condemn Iran’s massive bombardment attacking Israel in the strongest possible terms. From Hamas to Hezbollah to the Houthis, Iran has been the power supporting Israel's terrorist enemies and providing them with the weapons and know-how to attack Israel's civilians. Our communities are in complete solidarity with the people of Israel and the IDF as they work to defend themselves from these attacks, and we pray for their safety. We are thankful for the support promised by the United States to actively defend Israel from the Iranian threat. https://ow.ly/wvHh50TAnCn
