Nice Condolence Statement

The Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council (AIJAC) extends our deepest sympathies to the nation of France and to all those who lost families and friends in the monstrous attack in Nice.

We pray for a speedy recovery to all those injured and so deeply impacted by this repugnant desecration of all which is human.

It is difficult to express our outrage, shock and revulsion at the barbaric attack, which at this early stage bears all the hallmarks of terrorism.

We wish the French authorities every success in their efforts to determine whether the murderer had accomplices and, if so, to apprehend them.

May we soon see an end to such horrors.

Mark Leibler AC , Colin Rubenstein AM , Jeremy Jones AM
