CNN reported that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Sunday that the U.S. government believes there may be American citizens among the hostages currently held in Gaza.

Blinken added that this is the "worst attack on Israel since the Yom Kippur War in 1973".

He continued: "Our primary focus is to ensure that Israel has what it needs.. We are looking into the additional requests made by the Israelis."

Blinken emphasized that President Joe Biden has sent a very clear message that "no one is trying to take advantage of this anywhere else.”
