More Americans die in Israel as many still missing.
The Number of Americans Killed in Hamas Attack Rises, Dozens Still Missing
The devastating Hamas attack on Israeli communities last Saturday has claimed the lives of more Americans than previously reported. According to a State Department representative, the death toll now stands at 29 U.S. citizens. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families during this difficult time.
Tragically, there are still 15 U.S. citizens and one lawful permanent resident who remain unaccounted for. The State Department is in close contact with their families as they work tirelessly to locate and ensure the safety of these individuals.
The overall death toll from the Hamas attack currently stands at a staggering 1,300, with an additional 3,000 people injured. Among the casualties, at least 200 were killed in the town of Kfar Aza near the Gaza border, and 260 lost their lives at a music festival.
In response to the attack, Israel has carried out retaliatory airstrikes, resulting in the deaths of approximately 2,200 Palestinians and Hamas terrorists, with around 8,700 Palestinians wounded.
During the raid, Hamas took an estimated 150 people hostage, including innocent Israeli babies and a brave 22-year-old U.S. citizen serving in the Israel Defense Forces. Israeli National Security Council head Tzachi Hanegbi has made it clear that Israel will not negotiate with Hamas for the release of the hostages.
President Joe Biden has expressed his determination to bring American hostages home, stating that he has not given up hope. Republican Rep. Cory Mills of Florida has taken action by flying to Israel to assist in the evacuation of U.S. citizens. His efforts have already resulted in nearly 100 Americans being safely brought out of the country.
UPDATE: Our office and team haS now gotten out 96 Americans from Israel. 77 of which I was on myself.
We’ve also secured a charter aircraft that can hold 218 passengers. It Will not cost anything the Americans needing ti get out of Israel.
I’m also proud to report that… pic.twitter.com/lAfoq3l02D

Meanwhile, as tensions escalate, Americans in Gaza are desperately trying to flee ahead of an anticipated Israeli offensive. However, Hamas and Egyptian officials are preventing Americans who have reached Gaza’s southern border from leaving, causing great distress and anxiety.

A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
What if you woke up one morning and half of the people you count on had just vanished overnight?
That happened to me recently. I got up, came to work here at The Western Journal, and when I got to my office, literally half of our readers had vanished. They were just gone. We had been nuked by Facebook, and it had happened almost instantly.
But it was even worse. Facebook hit us at the same time 90 percent of advertisers had essentially boycotted us. “Brutal” is a word I’ve used a lot lately.
The fight for the truth is brutal. The fight for America’s soul is brutal. What the government is doing to Jan. 6 detainees is brutal. What surgeons are doing to confused children is brutal.
It’s a fight we must win. But we can’t win without you.
A subscription to The Western Journal will go much farther than you think. It costs less than a cup of Starbucks coffee, and for that small price you get access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles — you’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight against leftism.
Can I count on you to subscribe today?
We need your help. Benjamin Franklin summed up the situation we’re all facing when he said, “We must all hang together, or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.”
We plan to hang in and fight. Please help us. Please subscribe today.
Sincerely,
Josh Manning

In what ways has the organization grown stronger and how has it managed to establish a community of readers who trust in its commitment to unbiased news
Wasn’t just Facebook. Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube were all following suit, silencing conservative voices and restricting the flow of information. It was a devastating blow to our mission of providing unbiased news and giving a voice to those who have been silenced by the mainstream media.
But we didn’t let it stop us. We fought back, just like we always do. We invested in new technologies, found alternative platforms, and rallied our supporters to stand behind us. And slowly but surely, we began to rebuild.
Now, we are stronger than ever. We have a growing community of readers who believe in the importance of a free and independent press. They trust us to deliver the news without bias or agenda.
But we can’t do it alone. We rely on the support of our readers to continue our mission. As the mainstream media becomes increasingly polarized and unreliable, it is crucial that we have a strong and independent voice to counter their narratives.
So I invite you to join us. Subscribe today and become a part of the fight against leftist censorship. Together, we can ensure that the truth prevails and that the voices of the American people are heard.
Thank you for your support.
