In particular, our sympathy is with our friends and colleagues in the Israeli scientific community. Israel has been and will always be a prime partner for the German research and innovation community.
Our thoughts are with all victims and all those taken hostage, and their families and friends. We are shocked and appalled by the atrocious violence that has been perpetrated by the terrorists and strongly condemn these barbaric acts. They cause unspeakable suffering for all civilians.
We stand in solidarity with Israel.
The Alliance of Science Organisations in Germany is a union of the most important science and research organisations in Germany.
