President Joe Biden said on Saturday that the federal government would provide “whatever is needed” to relief efforts underway in the wake of devastating tornadoes in Western Kentucky.
Biden recently declared an emergency in the state, calling the catastrophic weather one of the largest tornado outbreaks in American history.
The president said that Beshear told him parts of the state looked “like a war zone but worse.” He also said that he plans to visit the state soon to survey the damage.
