Chuck Schumer ‘Rushed To Shelter To Wait Out Rockets Sent By Hamas’
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s delegation in Tel Aviv was rushed to a bomb shelter to wait out rockets shot off by Hamas.
“While in Tel Aviv today, our delegation was rushed to a shelter to wait out rockets sent by Hamas,” the New York Democrat announced on X Sunday morning.
Schumer posted a photo of himself alongside Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah in the shelter.
“It shows you what Israelis have to go through,” he continued. “We must provide Israel with the support required to defend itself.”
Schumer, the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in the United States, and a bipartisan group of senators took the trip to Tel Aviv to show support for Israel ahead of Joe Biden’s expected request for Congress to approve supplemental wartime funding for Israel and Ukraine.
