Dutch opposition leader Geert Wilders arrived at Gilad Farm in Samaria to console the family of Benaya Mellet, who was killed in a terror attack on Friday near the village of Tel. Wilders told the family: 'Millions in Europe feel your pain,' according to Abu Ali Express.
Dutch opposition leader Geert Wilders told the family of slain IDF Master Sgt. (res.) Benayahu Mellet that "Millions in Europe feel your pain," according to a report by Abu Ali Express. The visit to the Gilad Farm in Samaria took place Sunday, with the new quote adding a further public message from Wilders beyond earlier accounts.
The Zioneer reported on Monday at 11:48 Jerusalem that Wilders visited the family on Sunday, told the widow Esther "You are all heroes, you are not alone," and offered condolences. The family lost Mellet in a terrorist shooting attack near the village of Tel in Samaria last Friday.
Wilders, leader of the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV), is on a solidarity visit to Israel. The Zioneer reported on July 25 that he posted a photo from the Western Wall in Jerusalem, writing that he is proud to be a friend of Israel and comes in times of peace and war.
The new quote is attributed solely to the Abu Ali Express report; no other source has independently confirmed it.
