Three years ago, Hamas terrorists launched a barbaric attack on Israel that killed more than 1,200 people and took more than 250 others hostage. Among those murdered and captured were dozens of American citizens.
The brutal attack followed years of backing, intelligence sharing, and training by the number one state sponsor of terror in the Middle East and around the world: Iran.
Today, on this solemn anniversary, we remember the victims of that horrific day and pray for their families. We also reaffirm our unwavering commitment to working with our friends and allies to eliminate the threat posed by Iran and its terrorist proxies so that an attack like October 7th never happens again.
