The Times of Israel tells us more: Two staff members of the Israeli Embassy in Washington were shot and killed Wednesday evening while leaving an event at a Jewish museum, with police saying the suspect yelled, “Free, free Palestine” after he was arrested. The two victims, named as Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, were leaving an event at the Capital Jewish Museum when the suspect approached a group of four people and opened fire, Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith said at a news conference. IFCJ Canada and our faithful supporters remain committed to serving as “watchmen on the walls” for God’s people. Please join us in praying for all the families and loved ones of the victims of this horrific attack.
