Biden says US support for Israel ‘rock solid and unwavering’
Washington, United States-AFP
President Joe Biden said Saturday that US support for Israel was “rock solid and unwavering” after Hamas launched a large-scale surprise attack.
“The United States stands with Israel. We will not ever fail to have their back,” Biden said in a televised statement at the White House, flanked by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Western capitals condemned the wave of attacks by Hamas, which the United States and European Union consider a terrorist group.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called the attack “terrorism in its most despicable form”.
But Hamas drew support from other foes of Israel, with Iran’s supreme leader declaring he was “proud” and Lebanese militant group Hezbollah praising the “heroic operation”.
UN Middle East peace envoy Tor Wennesland warned of “a dangerous precipice” and called on all sides to “pull back from the brink”.
