President Biden to visit Israel as Hamas-Israel war intensifies.

President Biden will visit Israel on Wednesday to convey a message of solidarity to a vital US ally that has declared war on the Palestinian organization Hamas for their murderous terror campaign in southern Israel.

Biden is “coming here at a critical moment for Israel, for the region, and for the world,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday during his second visit to the Jewish state in a week.   

Blinken also stated that the US and Israel had “agreed to develop a plan that will enable humanitarian aid from donor nations and multinational organizations to reach civilians in Gaza,” referring to the small, densely crowded Palestinian region ruled by Hamas for over two decades.  

Thirteen U.S. nationals remain unaccounted for after the Hamas raids in Israel and 30 U.S. citizens have been confirmed killed. As many as 600 U.S. nationals are thought to be among the hundreds of thousands of people trapped in Gaza.
