In light of the surprise attack on Israel in the early hours of Shabbat morning Mayor Fox and the Bradley Beach Borough Council stand in support of Israel along with our Bradley Beach Community. Supporting Israel is both a matter of upholding our democratic values here at home and also promotes stability abroad in the region. Israel’s commitment to Western values deserves our attention, prayers, and full measure of support today and during the very difficult days that lie ahead. We pray for a return of the Israeli and American hostages being held in Gaza. Shalom.
