Biden Reiterates Support for Israel; UN Security Council to Meet Sunday

On October 7, the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas carried out an unprecedented surprise attack on the Jewish state of Israel. In an act of war, Hamas terrorists invaded Israel, infiltrated cities and towns across Israel’s south, kidnapped civilians and fired thousands of rockets and missiles at cities across the country.

We send our condolences to the families of the murdered and our wishes for a speedy recovery to those who are wounded. Israel has every right to defend itself from acts of war and terrorism. We stand united with Israel.
