Yaron Lischinsky and his partner Sarah Milgrim were identified on Thursday as the two Israeli embassy employees who were killed in an antisemitic attack outside the Jewish museum in Washington, DC.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the embassy wrote, "Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues. They were in the prime of their lives. This evening, a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC. The entire embassy staff is heartbroken and devastated by their murder. No words can express the depth of our grief and horror at this devastating loss. Our hearts are with their families, and the embassy will be by their side during this terrible time."
