The Texas Republican’s tweets come as he and fellow Sen. Bill Hagerty, R-Tenn., traveled to Israel on Sunday to assess the damage from the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas.
Cruz told the Washington Free Beacon on Sunday that the purpose of the trip was “to hear and see firsthand what our Israeli allies need to defend themselves and to show the international community that we stand unequivocally with Israel.”
The conflict saw hundreds of rockets fly indiscriminately into Jerusalem and Tel Aviv in attacks by Hamas that were condemned by Republicans and Democrats alike.
