Harvard University's new president on Tuesday condemned Hamas for invading Israel – three days after the attack occurred, and only after pressure from prominent alumni.
More than 1,200 Israelis have been killed since Hamas launched an attack that included more than 3,000 rockets and an armed invasion into the southern inhabited regions of the State of Israel from the neighboring Gaza Strip at 6:30 a.m. local time Saturday, October 7, according to The Times of Israel.
