On Oct. 7, 2023, hundreds of people were murdered by Hamas terrorists, and 43 others were taken hostage. Omer Shem Tov, an Israeli citizen, was one of those taken hostage, and FOX 10's John Hook is talking with him about his miraculous survival. Omer Shem Tov says he grew closer to God and his faith during his hundreds of days as a hostage. He also praises the military and its efforts in bringing him home safe. More on the US impact on the war in the Middle East: U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine on Sunday detailed how American troops attacked Iran's nuclear sites, a day after the country launched strikes against Iran. The U.S. attacks came after a week of open conflict between Israel and Iran, sparked by Israel’s sudden barrage of attacks against Iran’s nuclear and military structure. U.S. President Donald Trump and Hegseth asserted that the sites were "completely and fully obliterated," and warned there would be additional strikes if Iran retaliates.
