Hundreds of students and staff from the University of Pennsylvania gathered Tuesday in a show of support for Israel.
The rally comes just days after an unprecedented surprise assault from Hamas against the country, leaving hundreds dead and thousands more maimed.
"You see those names on lists and never think that you’ll know anyone on it so when I saw his name and his family post it was devastating," Brawer-Cohen told FOX 29. "I think it was very powerful, very moving that so many people here today came together to talk about what's going on in Israel to show their support," Rubin said.
