Or should we wait? The facts regarding how we arrived at this point will not change.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Warner emphasized the importance of allowing the intelligence communities in both the\u2063 United States and Israel \u200cto focus on apprehending and\u200b bringing the Hamas leadership to justice.<\/p>\n<p>The devastating attack has resulted in the deaths of at\u2064 least 900 Israeli civilians and 14 Americans, with over 2,500 individuals sustaining injuries. Since the \u2062conflict began on Saturday, more than 1,800 Israelis and Palestinians have lost their\u200b lives.
