Rep. Don Bacon from Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District has issued a statement marking the first anniversary of the conflict between Hamas and Israel that began on October 7th last year.

"Our hearts are with the families of the murdered victims, the hostages, and their families," Bacon stated. "The barbarity we saw on 7 Oct was evil and Hamas must be fully rooted out of Gaza. We stand with Israel."

Bacon's remarks reflect his stance on the events that unfolded during this period, emphasizing support for Israel and condemning the actions attributed to Hamas.
