American Church Group Trapped in Israel Pleads for Biden's Help in Evacuation

A church group from California, consisting of 46 US citizens, is trapped in Israel due to canceled flights amid the ongoing conflict with Hamas. The group is pleading with the Biden administration to intervene and arrange charter flights for their evacuation. While other countries have organized flights to bring their citizens back, the State Department has not made similar plans. The group fears for their safety as the situation in Israel worsens, and they are currently in a safe location away from the fighting. A congressman has also written a letter to President Biden urging immediate action to evacuate American citizens in Israel.
