October 8, 2023

Toledo, OH – Today, Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur (OH-09), longest serving woman in the history of Congress and Co-Chair and Founder of the Congressional Ukraine Caucus released the following statement on the terror attacks carried out this weekend by Hamas in Israel:

"I continue to be horrified and dismayed by the brutality of Hamas terrorists attacking innocent Israeli civilians of all ages. The fingerprints of Iranian strategy and technology are as present here as they are in attacks against Ukraine.

"Destruction of innocent people is never morally justifiable. I stand resolutely against all terror and stand with the Israeli people as they encounter the darkest days in the history of the modern state.


"Our House must restore order expeditiously to be an effective instrument for the people of our nation and to meet our nation’s responsibilities as leader of the free world."
