"As far as the Americans are concerned, there are nine missing American citizens as well as a missing legal permanent [resident], a green card holder." Karl also asked Sullivan if the U.S. believes Hamas' claim that a number of hostages were killed in Israeli retaliatory strikes in Gaza. 9 Americans still missing after Hamas attack as hostage negotiations continue: Sullivan originally appeared on abcnews.go.com
