California Congressman Adam Schiff expressed outrage over the killing of six Israeli hostages by Hamas, including an American, during a CNN interview. He characterized the perpetrators as 'sons of bitches' who should be 'hunted down and brought to justice,' emphasizing the emotional toll on the victims' families. Schiff also voiced hope for a negotiated end to the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas, which has resulted in numerous casualties on both sides. Protests have erupted in Israel, with demands for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's resignation amid public dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the hostage situation. The bodies of the hostages were recovered from an underground location by the Israel Defense Forces shortly before their arrival. Vice President Kamala Harris condemned Hamas, expressing condolences to the families affected by the tragedy.
