Pelosi, AOC’s comments on airstrikes in Gaza and Israel underscores divide among Democrats
Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday condemned the indiscriminate rocket attacks by Hamas against Israel, and said Tel Aviv has the right to "defend herself against this assault."
Pelosi appeared to assign some blame to both sides for the initial escalation, and said, "recent inflammatory provocations including extremist forces in Jerusalem have exacerbated the situation, and restraint must be shown by all to de-escalate the crisis." Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., blamed Israel for its retaliatory airstrikes that left at least 10 Palestinian children dead.More Related News
