As Israel calls up 300,000 reservists to join the war effort against the terror group Hamas, Florida Congressman Cory Mills (R) has once again answered the call to service, and flew overnight to Israel to help rescue Americans stranded there.
In an exclusive phone call with The Floridian, Rep. Mills said that he was on the ground helping Israelis and evacuating Americans.
According to Mills, he was able to rescue 32 Americans, but there are still “hundreds trapped” in Israel.

Mills could not disclose his exact position for obvious security reasons but said that “helping and showing solidarity with our Israeli brethren and helping Americans evacuate” after the heinous Hamas attack was something he as an American felt compelled to do.
Rep. Brian Mast (R), who volunteered in the IDF after leaving the U.S. military, told The Floridian that Rep. Mills had told him and other members of Florida’s congressional delegation that he would be traveling to Israel.
Before being elected to the House of Representatives, Mills and a team of military contractors rescued an American family from Afghanistan during the Biden administration‘s botched 2021 withdrawal.
The Floridian has obtained this images from Mills' trip to Israel.
