US VP Harris says ‘tragic doesn’t begin to describe’ aftermath of Rafah strikes
Shouted a question regarding Israel’s weekend strike in Rafah, which reportedly killed dozens of Palestinian civilians, US Vice President Kamala Harris responds: “The word tragic doesn’t even begin to describe it.”
The IDF said earlier today that a secondary explosion sparked by its initial strike on an area outside of the designated humanitarian zone caused a fire that led to many civilian deaths, and that it was likely caused by stored Hamas ammo or weapons in the area.
