United States President Joe Biden expressed his solidarity with Americans concerned about a rise in violence on US soil as a result of the clashes between the Israeli military and the Palestinian branch of Hamas.
He specifically addressed the increase in hate crimes against Muslim and Jewish minorities in the US and attributed them to what he described as "the evil acts of terror perpetrated by Hamas in Israel."
Biden emphasized that his administration is prioritizing threats against all communities in the US that are affected by the Israel-Gaza war.
