Now, while rescue operations are still ongoing in our cities following the latest Russian terrorist attack, while rubble is being cleared and the wounded are receiving assistance, Ukraine extends its condolences, with particular sorrow, to each and every person in Israel and other countries who lost loved ones in the vile Hamas terrorist attack of October 7, 2023. Ukrainian citizens were also among the victims. It was the largest and most brutal attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust and an attack on civilization itself. There can be no forgiveness for it. Tragically, nearly 1,200 people were killed. Hostages were abused—children and innocent people. Every terrorist must be held accountable for what they did. Likewise, no other act of terror and no other war of aggression rooted in hatred should be forgiven or forgotten. There have already been far too many killings in the 21st century, a century that should have been, and must still become, entirely different. People deserve peace, security, and respect for human life. World leaders, and everyone with real influence and power, must truly stand up for life when it matters. The world is certainly stronger than any terror.
