I will never forget the horror of October 7, 2023. 1,200 innocent people, including 46 Americans, were massacred by Hamas terrorists. Women raped on the side of the road," U.S. Vice President Kamal Harris said in a statement on Monday, commemorating the October 7 atrocities. "What Hamas did that day was pure evil," she said. "It is far past time for a hostage and ceasefire deal to end the suffering of innocent people. And I will always fight for the Palestinian people to be able to realize their right to dignity, freedom, security, and self-determination."
