No confirmation. An author I work with who lives in Israel wrote this, though, after I asked her and offered my condolences for her homeland:

Today is a sad day for both our countries. And i send condolences....it is a death in the 'family of man', and death is so difficult to deal with.

Be well, and if our enemies rejoice, and they will, let them!

Israelis - and Americans - are survivors.
