At least 22 Americans have been killed in Israel as the Israel-Hamas conflict continues, according to the U.S. State Department.
“As we continue to account for the horrors of the appalling terrorist assault against Israel this weekend and the hundreds of innocent civilians who were murdered, we are seeing the immense scale and reach of this tragedy,” President Joe Biden said in a statement on Monday.
The statement continued, “It’s heart-wrenching. These families have been torn apart by inexcusable hatred and violence…My heart goes out to every family impacted by the horrible events of the past few days.”
