The number of Americans murdered by Hamas during the terrorists group’s attack on Israel has risen to 25 people, while others remain missing.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced the number on Thursday after he landed in Tel Aviv, where he pledged unwavering support for Israel during a speech alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Blinken said the United States is working to secure the release of hostages taken by Hamas.
The White House said on Wednesday that at least 17 Americans are missing.
“I’ve directed my team to share intelligence and deploy additional experts from across the United States government to consult with and advise Israeli counterparts on hostage recovery efforts,” President Joe Biden said Tuesday. “Because as president, I have no higher priority than the safety of Americans being held hostage around the world.”
