Condemning the attack on the Argentine Jewish Mutual Association Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in July 1994 and encouraging accountability for the attack.
This resolution condemns the 1994 bombing of Argentina’s AMIA Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires, which killed 85 people and injured 300, and calls for accountability for the attack. It urges international cooperation to hold Iranian officials and Hezbollah operatives responsible, referencing Argentina’s recent court ruling that identified Iran as responsible for the bombing. The resolution supports efforts to pursue justice through INTERPOL and stands in solidarity with Argentina’s Jewish community - the largest in Latin America - honoring victims and their families who have waited 30 years for accountability. As a symbolic gesture, it does not create new laws but emphasizes U.S. support for Argentina’s legal process.
