Las Vegas, NV – Congresswoman Dina Titus of Nevada’s Third District met on Monday with Israeli Consul General Jacob Dayan in her district office in Las Vegas. Titus released the following statement on their meeting:
“It was a pleasure to welcome Israeli Consul General Dayan to Las Vegas and convey my support for our long-time ally. The United States must continue to be a strong partner to Israel at this critical time and encourage a sustainable ceasefire that enhances their safety and security.
“Hamas’ utter disregard for life, both of the Israeli people and their own citizens of Gaza is unacceptable. Israel must continue to defend itself and its people against the continued threat of Hamas.”
