Harris: I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself

US Vice President Kamala Harris commented on the war in Gaza in her speech on Thursday night, saying, “President Biden and I are working around the clock. Because now is the time to get a hostage deal and a ceasefire deal done…and let me be clear: I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself, and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself, because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that a terrorist organization called Hamas caused on October 7.”
