The whistleblowers allege that there were not enough security personnel on hand and that the security plan was inadequate.

Reporters confronted President Biden on Wednesday about the recent murder of two Israelis kidnapped by Hamas. When asked if he had any reaction to the killings, Biden responded by talking about his support for Israel and its right to defend itself.

Biden's response was criticized by some who said that he should have been more forceful in condemning Hamas's actions. However, the White House defended Biden's response, saying that he had struck the right balance between expressing sympathy for the victims and supporting Israel's security.
