Rubio and Lutnick Host Memorial for American October 7 Victims

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick hosted a memorial in Washington on Wednesday, October 14, for Americans killed in the Hamas-led October 7 attack on Israel. Bereaved families joined the ceremony at the State Department, which was closed to the press. Allison Lutnick, Adm. Brad Cooper and Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun also attended. The remembrance followed a Senate resolution honoring the victims that recorded at least 46 Americans killed and 12 taken hostage in the attacks.
