With Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu still here in the U.S., the Iran backed terrorist group Hezbollah launched 30 rockets into Israel, with one of them landing on a soccer field where several children were playing.
At least 11 people are dead, and 29 injured.
Former President Donald Trump, speaking at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, condemned the deadly attack, calling it “terrible” while telling the crowd, it “never would have happened” under his administration.
The attack happened in the northern Israeli town of Majdal Shams right by the border with Syria.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) put the blame squarely on Hezbollah in a statement issued shortly after the attack. "According to an IDF situational assessment and the intelligence in our possession, the rocket launch toward Majdal Shams was carried out by the Hezbollah terrorist organization. The Hezbollah terrorist organization is behind the rocket launch at a soccer field in Majdal Shams which caused multiple civilian casualties, including children earlier this evening."
Israel's Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant, together with the IDF's Chief of the General Staff, LTG Herzi Halevi, were conducting a situational assessment on the attack.
