U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has arrived in Tel Aviv for
emergency talks with Israeli officials. Blinken was greeted by Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who thanked the U.S. for its support
against the "barbarians of Hamas." Blinken said 25 U.S. citizens are
among those killed by Hamas. The U.S. has vowed to keep supporting
Israel with aid and military equipment and warned Iran to "be careful."
