House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries attacked Israel and called for a 'dramatic shift' in U.S. Middle East policy on the third anniversary of the October 7 attack. In a statement he released, Jeffries condemned Israel's actions and said that 'the horrifying deaths of Palestinian civilians and the devastation in Gaza are reprehensible and should never be allowed to happen again.' Jeffries demanded the U.S. commit to establishing a Palestinian state and work to end settler violence in the West Bank, but alongside the criticism, he clarified that the U.S. will continue its commitment to Israel's right to exist.
