US President Joe Biden continues to express support for Israel following unprecedented attacks by Palestinian terrorists against Israeli civilians and soldiers on Saturday.
In a multi-front attack, Hamas terrorists infiltrated into at least 22 Israeli locations, killed civilians and soldiers, and took hostages to Gaza, amid barrages of rocket fire.
“This is not a moment for any party hostile to Israel to exploit these attacks to seek advantage,” said Biden. “My administration’s support for Israel’s security is rock-solid and unwavering.”
“We will never fail to have Israel’s back,” he says in a series of posts on X.
“We will make sure that they have the help their citizens need and they can continue to defend themselves,” he says in a video posted to X.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
