## Summary

**Calls for accountability for Iran and Hezbollah** for the 1994 AMIA bombing in Buenos Aires. The resolution would honor the victims, note decades without justice, and urge INTERPOL and U.S. partners to pursue arrest orders and back Argentina’s legal measures. - Families of victims: Honors the 85 people killed and expresses sympathy to relatives who have waited more than three decades for justice. - Argentina’s Jewish community: Stands in solidarity with the community of more than 250,000 people and highlights a Court of Cassation ruling that described the attack as a “crime against humanity.” - Accountability and justice efforts: Notes named Iranian and Hezbollah suspects, records that INTERPOL has three related red alerts, and supports Argentina’s recent law allowing trials in absentia and requests for international arrest warrants. - Regional diplomacy and enforcement: Commends Argentina for designating Hezbollah and Hamas as terrorist organizations and urges other U.S. allies and partners in Latin America and the Caribbean to do the same and comply with arrest orders.
