American Citizen’s Body Held By Hamas Since October 2023

6 weeks ago President Biden is mourning the death of an American citizen whose body has apparently been held by Hamas for more than a year. According to the Israeli military, an Israeli American soldier who was believed to have been captured alive by Hamas in the October 7th attack last year was killed that day and his body taken into the Gaza Strip. In a White House statement, the president said he was “devastated and outraged” to learn of the death of Omer Neutra. The 21-year-old, who grew up in New York, was serving as a tank commander in the Israel Defense Forces.
