Blinken: Israel has the right to do everything to prevent a repeat of October 7

According to Fars International News Agency, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken once again gave the green light to Israel to carry out military operations that have resulted in the death of thousands of civilians in a news conference on Friday morning.

He said Israel must identify areas where civilians will be safe and avoid damaging urban infrastructure such as hospitals and water facilities.
