Top Israeli leaders on Saturday conveyed their "deepest condolences" to Washington in the aftermath of the Connecticut elementary school shooting rampage that left 26 people dead, including 20 children.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote a letter to US President Barack Obama in which he condemned the "savage massacre of innocents" that targeted the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut.
"We in Israel have experienced such cruel acts of slaughter and we know the shock and agony that they bring," wrote the prime minister.
"I want to express my profound grief, and that of all the people of Israel, to the families that lost their loved ones," he said, expressing hope that Obama and the American people would "find the strength to overcome this unspeakable tragedy."
