President Donald Trump delivered a solemn tribute to the victims of the October 7 terrorist attacks, calling the assault on Israeli civilians “one of the most evil and heinous desecrations of innocent life the world has ever seen.”

“Two years ago... thousands of innocent Israeli civilians were attacked by terrorists in one of the most evil and heinous desecrations of innocent life the world has ever seen,” Trump said. “Please know that America joins you in those two everlasting vows — NEVER FORGET, and NEVER AGAIN.”

The president’s remarks were met with widespread emotional response, as he reaffirmed America’s solidarity with Israel and condemned acts of terrorism targeting civilians.

Trump’s statement, made during a commemorative address, underscored his administration’s continued commitment to peace, security, and justice in the Middle East. He also called on the international community to honor the memory of the victims by standing united against extremism.

The tribute comes as part of ongoing ceremonies marking the second anniversary of the attacks, which reshaped regional dynamics and paved the way for renewed peace efforts under the Gaza ceasefire agreement.
