The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia unequivocally opposes the Islamic Republic of Iran’s brazen attack on Israel as part of yet another attempt to cause chaos and terror in the region.

Together with the Greater Philadelphia Jewish community, we stand resolute in our support for Israel’s right to safety and to defend themselves. It is again another stark reminder of Iran and its proxies’ expressed intent to eliminate Israel and harm the Jewish people. It is time for the world to stand up against terrorism.

We mourn the loss of the victims and pray for the swift recovery of those injured. We are thankful for the United States’ support in actively defending Israel from the Iranian threat
