Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this evening, following an assessment of the situation with the heads of the security establishment:

"Citizens of Israel, like you, I was shocked to see the horrific photos in the wake of Hezbollah's murderous attack in Majdal Shams.

Among those who were murdered are young children who were playing soccer, and others. All of our hearts are broken over these sights.

We embrace the families and the entire Druze community in its difficult hour, which is also our difficult hour.

Since I was updated about the disaster, I have been holding continuous security consultations and I have directed that our return to Israel be brought forward. As soon as I arrive, I will immediately convene the Security Cabinet.

I can say that the State of Israel will not let this pass in silence. We will not overlook this."
