The following statement was released by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Thursday, regarding the terror attack in Bulgaria.

“Yesterday’s attack in Bulgaria was perpetrated by Hizbullah, Iran’s leading terrorist proxy. This attack was part of a global campaign of terror carried out by Iran and Hezbollah. This terror campaign has reached a dozen countries on five continents. The world’s leading powers should make it clear that Iran is the country that stands behind this terror campaign. Iran must be exposed by the international community as the premiere terrorist-supporting state that it is. And everything should be done to prevent Iran, the world’s most dangerous regime, from developing the world’s most dangerous weapons.

“Israel is a strong country and the people of Israel are a strong people. We’ll continue to fight against the terrorists and to exact a heavy price from those who support them.”
