Today more than ever, a de-escalation of tensions is needed not only for the sake of peace in the Middle East, but for the sake of peace in the entire civilized world, National Assembly Chair Raya Nazaryan said at a commemorative ceremony at Sofia's Central Synagogue on Monday. The ceremony marked a year since the unprecedented attack carried out by the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas on Israeli territory on October 7, 2023. The attack led to war in the Gaza Strip, which then spread to neighboring Lebanon against Hezbollah.
