Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) released the following statement in response to the news of the murder of Gilad Shaar, Naftali Frankel, and Eyal Yifrach, three Israeli teens who were kidnapped last month as they were trying to get home from school.

"The senseless murder of these innocent, unarmed boys, including an American citizen, cannot go unpunished and the cowardly perpetrators who committed these heinous acts should be brought to justice immediately. I join the Israeli people in their mourning and am praying for the families and friends of Gilad, Naftali, and Eyal during this difficult time. The United States Congress will continue to support our close ally, Israel, will help in any way we can to bring those responsible to justice."
