Biden recounts story of his wife and daughter dying in a car accident as he meets Hamas attack survivors and first responders
President Joe Biden brought up his own family tragedy from 1972 while greeting Israelis who responded to the horrific Hamas attack.
He mentioned his own trauma during a conversation with Dr. Jordanna Hadas Koppel. It was one of several organized chats the president had with first responders and those who lost loved ones during the stunning October 7 attacks.
She described getting the phone call to prepare for a ‘mass-casualty event,’ something she said she never could have prepared for.
She says she treated soldiers, civilians, ‘but mostly children.’
