site.btaOn Second Anniversary of Hamas Attack against Israel, Bulgarian Foreign Ministry Calls for "Path toward Peace and Security for All"

"Two years after Hamas' terrorist attack on Israel, Bulgaria remembers the numerous innocent victims and stands with their families, and all those still held hostage in Gaza," the Bulgarian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday in a post on X.

"On this date, we call for the immediate release of all hostages, an end to the war and violence and for a path toward peace and security for all," the Ministry added. 

On October 7, 2023, the Palestinian militant group Hamas attacked Israel, triggering an ongoing offensive in the Gaza Strip which has devastated the Palestinian-populated enclave. The anniversary comes as Hamas and the Israeli Government hold indirect talks in Egypt, raising faint hopes of the release of the remaining hostages held in Gaza and of an end to the two-year war.
