Republican presidential candidates, including Ron DeSantis, criticized President Biden's approach to the recent attacks on Israel. DeSantis accused Biden's administration of empowering Iran after unfreezing $6 billion in Iranian assets, which he believes were used to support Hamas. However, the Treasury Department clarified that the funds could only be used for humanitarian purposes and were not fully transferred to Iran. Other candidates expressed support for Israel's response but questioned the allocation of aid, citing concerns about domestic issues. Former President Donald Trump attributed the attacks to perceived weakness from the US and vowed to cut off funding for Palestinian terrorists.
