on such a day, many is radius has a hard time to come to terms with the unprecedented attack on is really communities . we have the causes strip intel of beef, young adults. he has also been looking for a friend drum. he was working at the festival. they have known each other since they were teenagers. and then the last contact with him was at 9 21 am. on saturday morning he sent a text message to his mother. and uh, in the text message, he says that he, he loves them his family. um, but he's in a container. there are a lot of terrorist outside, lots of gunshots outside. and it does not seem like they are going to make it out of their live friends and family is going social media for a sign of life that didn't know what had happened to him. but then

a text message arrives. and i was just asking a rums wife last if um, if she can send me one of his pictures. so i can uh so i can send it to you from there winning day. and um and uh, she says that they, they told them no officially, but he's dead. i mean, he's family knows already. he's one of the many killed in this attack, as well as us has concerned that at least 11 all of its citizens were killed in the terror attack on saturday. and believes americans are among the hostages being held by home us president joined by and has condemned the attacks and emphasized that to us stands by israel. he says these ro has the right to defend itself, so not to share even more than $1000.00 civilians slaughtered francisco,

slaughtered, and israel long i'm at least 14 american citizens killed. parents butchered using their bodies to try to protect their children. stomach turn, the reports of the baby's being killed, entire families slain. today, americans across the country are praying for all those families. it ripped apart. most of us know how it feels. it leaves a black hole in your chest when you lose family. feeling like you're being sucked in, the anger, the pain sense of hopelessness. this is what they mean by human tragedy. belie austin told me he was special corresponding abraham in washington for who would take away as from what to abide and that to say of the will the president use very emotional,

very descriptive language. calling these attacks by him us a here and evil. he talked about the victims, the children of the elderly that have been killed and the rapes, that as we hear there are reports that there have been rapes committed as a well, he definitely gave israel a lot of latitude when it comes to it's current military operation in the gaza strip saying, reiterating again the american stance that israel has the right to defend itself in the face of the unprecedented terror attacks that it is facing. at the same time, he was sure to point out that as the democracies also have to abide by the rule of law. and by that, of course, he means a, you know, the civilians that are in guys and that within that military operation, their lives have to be taken into consideration as well. he's perhaps echoing the

words that we heard yesterday from the un secretary general, antonio gutierrez, who gave statements on the ongoing military operation. seeing that even, you know, within the legitimate is really security concerns and within the military operation that has to happen within the framework of international law. and that includes, you know, considering a civilian life and civilian infrastructure in that military operation. darren, you're speaking of civilians, there are american citizens among the hostages that have mazda is threatening to kill, also broad costs. the killings, if that happens, how would that affect the u. s. position? well, the current us position is that if it did, the binding administration is ready to assist is real with all of the help that it needs for our viewers. we don't know, the united states does provide israel with upwards of $3000000000.00 us dollars of

military 8 annually. and with the current unprecedented distribution, dividing administration has also pledged to provide israel with a more ammunition and more equipment. but the united states has said that it's up until this point, there will be no u. s. boots on the ground. we do know that however, that the by and administration will provide these relays with expertise in the form of hosted new hostage negotiators. but there is a lot of pressure we saw today in tel aviv a press conference by families of us citizens believe to be held in gaza, asking the president to do more to find their loved ones and really pleading with him, reminding him that it is his responsibility and the responsibility of the united states to ensure their a safe return. but it seems that for now that help will be limited to working with the israelis, but so far, no american puts on the ground. dw special correspondent hebrew,
