At least 14 American citizens have been killed in the war between Hamas and Israel, which began Saturday when the Palestinian militant group launched a surprise attack on the country.
"At this moment, we must be crystal clear: We stand with Israel. We stand with Israel," President Biden said. President Biden didn't mince words Tuesday when saying the U.S. believes Hamas is a terrorist organization with"no regards" for Palestinians, a similar message in his brief remarks Saturday after Hamas first attacked.
The Department of Defense has directed the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier, the USS Normandy cruiser and several destroyers to move to the Eastern Mediterranean near Israel.
