Hundreds turned out at a Pennsylvania community center Monday night to show support for Israel, just days after the country was attacked by Hamas.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a Jewish-American, addressed the crowd gathered at Kaiserman JCC in Wynnewood, and called the Hamas attack "unprovoked and unjustified."
Israel increased airstrikes on the Gaza Strip and sealed it off from food, fuel and other supplies Monday in retaliation for a bloody incursion by Hamas militants, as the war's death toll rose to nearly 1,600 on both sides. Hamas also escalated the conflict, pledging to kill captured Israelis if attacks targeted civilians without warnings.
"We are appalled and saddened by the senseless murders of Jewish men, women and children in Israel," said Michael Markman from the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia.
