In the wake of Hamas' surprise attack on Israel, Sen. Tim Scott is among the Republicans criticizing President Joe Biden over last month's prisoner swap with Iran. Scott, who is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a 2024 presidential candidate, said the unfreezing of $6 billion in Iranian oil assets as part of the deal between the U.S. and Iran created a 'market for hostages.

The senator did not, however, provide hard evidence the money was used in the assault. Jon Finer, a deputy national security adviser for the Biden administration told 'CBS Mornings' on Monday that while Iran is 'broadly complicit in these attacks' and has been Hamas' 'primary backer for decades,' the U.S. has not seen 'any sort of direct involvement in the immediate attacks that took place over the last couple of days.
