‘Created by a weak US president and vice president’: Trump blames Biden and Harris for Hezbollah attacks on Israel that killed 12 people

Donald Trump on Saturday blamed US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for the Hezbollah rocket attack on a soccer field in northern Israel that killed 12 children and teenagers, the New York Post reported.

“Today’s attack on Israel must not be forgotten and will go down in history as another moment caused by a weak and ineffective President and Vice President of the United States,” Trump said during a campaign speech in Minnesota.

“I want to condemn the evil attack on Israel that took place today. A rocket fired by Hezbollah killed at least a dozen children, young children. They were playing on a soccer field in the Golan Heights,” said the former US president.

Biden and Harris have not yet commented on the attacks.

The White House National Security Council expressed support for the victims and said the U.S. “will continue to support efforts to end these horrific attacks along the Blue Line, which must be a top priority.”

“Our support for Israel’s security is rock-solid and unwavering against all Iranian-backed terrorist groups, including Lebanon’s Hezbollah,” it added.

However, Hezbollah denied any responsibility for Saturday’s attack.
