US President Joe Biden issued a Hanukkah greeting on Twitter Tuesday in which he warned against rising global antisemitism.

"This year’s Hanukkah arrives in the midst of rising and emboldened antisemitism, at home and around the world," Biden tweeted.

"I recognize your fear, your hurt. And as your president, I want to make this clear. I will not be silent. America will not be silent," the president added.
