It has been a year since Hamas-backed terrorists attacked Israel, killing over 1,200 civilians and taking hostages. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris expressed their support for Israel and called for an end to the violence. Former President Donald Trump’s campaign claimed that a second term would have prevented the attack. U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for violence in Gaza and called for a ceasefire and humanitarian relief. U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark emphasized the need for a lasting ceasefire for both Israelis and Palestinians. Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey ordered flags to be flown at half staff to commemorate the attack and condemned the rise in antisemitism and hate. The anniversary serves as a reminder of the ongoing conflict and the need for peace in the region.
