Statement: AIJAC gravely concerned for kidnapped Israelis
news_item/aijac_260x180__260x180_.jpg

AIJAC is gravely concerned for the welfare of two Israeli civilians who, it has just been revealed, are believed to be currently being held captive by Hamas or other Palestinian terror groups in Gaza, and extends our sincerest sympathy and hopes for their safe return to the families and loved ones of the two individuals concerned.
We urge the Australian government to use whatever diplomatic influence it can bring to bear to support international efforts to bring about their immediate and unconditional release.

Mark Leibler

National Chairman

Colin Rubenstein

Executive Director
