Events in the Middle East

This past week we watched in horror the terrorist attacks on Israel and unequivocally condemn the acts of violence committed by Hamas. Terrorism has no place in our society and we stand in solidarity with the Israeli communities who were victims of these attacks. We denounce these acts of terror, which are indefensible.

We are deeply saddened by the ongoing violence and human suffering in the Gaza Region and Israel, and the loss of Israeli and Palestinian lives in this conflict. Our thoughts are with all the communities impacted by these terrible events. We support all peoples’ right to live in peace, security, with dignity and without fear.

In these challenging times, we are committed to providing support to our colleagues who are experiencing loss, trauma and fear, while standing together against terrorism, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. As an organization we remain focused on promoting a safe and inclusive work environment for all our employees, where our core values of empathy, inclusion and mutual respect are upheld for individuals of all backgrounds and identities.
