Technion Community Grieves
The Technion community is profoundly shaken, mourning the devastating loss of lives; infants, children, seniors, women, and men, as well as entire families who were senselessly murdered in a recent act of terror targeting peaceful communities.
We also honor the valiant members of the security forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of their homes and loved ones.
The overwhelming sorrow and concern for the abducted, imprisoned, and missing weighs heavily on our hearts.
Our thoughts are steadfastly with our friends who have suffered unimaginable loss, as well as the families of those who have been abducted or injured. With heavy hearts, we extend our deepest condolences to them, and to the whole of Israel.
