AAGHarmeetDhillon @AAGDhillon - We @CivilRights stand with our @TheJusticeDept colleagues ready to seek justice for the victims and families of this shocking crime in our capital. We have been pushing hard on these issues, but we must do more.
Quote
Embassy of Israel to the USA @IsraelinUSA
Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues. They were in the prime of their lives. 
This evening, a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC. 
The entire embassy staff is heartbroken and devastated by their murder. No words can express the depth of our grief and horror at this devastating loss. 
Our hearts are with their families, and the embassy will be by their side during this terrible time.
