Israel Calls Chabad House Attack “Enemy Action”
The Times of India announced earlier today that the Israel Defense Ministry has taken great offense to the attack on the Chabad House in Mumbai, calling the event “enemy action” against the State of Israel. The Israelis harmed in this terrorist attack will have the same financial benefits as those individuals who are affected by terror attacks in Israel. So far, there are 8 Israelis who have been identified as victims of the Mumbai attacks; further investigation is being done by Israeli police.
The Israeli Police Victim Identification Unit has actively been helping identify Israeli victims in Mumbai. Their bodies have been placed in a few central locations within Mumbai where the Israeli police say they are to begin their work to try and identify as many Israelis as they can. In fact, identification kits have been prepared and the Israeli Defense Ministry has given all the information they know about the Israeli victims.
