“Our deepest sympathies go to their families and loved ones,” he writes on X.

“From Israel, we send a message of friendship and solidarity to [President Donald Trump], and all those serving in and around the White House,” Herzog continues. “We stand shoulder to shoulder with our greatest friend and ally, the United States of America.”
