President Biden called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to minimize civilian casualties in the Gaza Strip in response to deadly Hamas terrorist attacks.
Earlier today, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu compared Hamas to ISIS and vowed that Israel’s retaliation against the terrorist group “will reverberate with them for generations.”
The death toll now stands at 1,200 in Israel, including 14 Americans, and another 900 in Gaza. About 150 people are believed to have been taken hostage, including Americans. Hamas threatens to execute them.
President Joe Biden said in his first remarks on the conflict on Tuesday that his administration would advise on hostage recovery. “I have no higher priority than the safety of Americans who are held hostage around the world,” he said.
