Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sends his condolences to the family of
Shira Banki, who succumbed today (Sunday, 2 August 2015) to the wounds she
received when she was stabbed during the Pride Parade in Jerusalem. "Shira
was murdered because she courageously supported the principle according to
which everyone is entitled to live their lives in dignity and safety. We
will not allow the abhorrent murderer to undermine the fundamental values
upon which Israeli society is based. We strongly condemn the attempt to
instill hatred and violence in our midst and we will deal with the murderer
to the fullest extent of the law," the Prime Minister said.
