"Israel will continue to assert its right to self-defence. On October 7, the country was targeted by the terrorist group, Hamas, and more recently Hezbollah. We are fighting a war against terrorism so that the world is a better place to live in. We will not rest till terrorism is wiped out," Israel foreign ministry director-general Yaakov Blitshtein asserted on Tuesday.
The senior official was in the city on a day's visit. He visited Chabad House in Colaba which was attacked by Pakistani terrorists in November 2008. Blitshtein laid a wreath at a memorial built inside the building. In a brief speech, he recalled the 26/11 horror and appealed for a war against terrorism.
In the afternoon, he took part in a function during which the 181-year-old Shaare Rason synagogue near Masjid, one of the two synagogues in the area that gave the local railway its name, was added to the 'Jewish Route', an itinerary of 24 Jewish heritage sites in Mumbai.
