U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken appealed to the countries of the world that are not demanding that Hamas lay down its weapons, saying during a press briefing that "many countries are calling for an end to this conflict, which we all want, but I don't hear most of them demanding that Hamas stop hiding behind civilians and lay down its weapons."
According to him, "If Hamas does this - the war will end tomorrow. It could have ended already a month ago if Hamas did this.
How can it be that there are no demands ofthe attacker, but only demands of the victim."
Israeli forces killed four people in southern Lebanon on Monday, Lebanon's National News Agency reported, citing the health ministry, in two separate strikes that the Israeli military said targeted members of the Shi'ite Muslim armed group Hezbollah.
Israel has taken steps to help settlers acquire land in the occupied West Bank and widen its powers in parts of the territory where Palestinians have some self-rule - measures they said aimed to undermine the two-state solution.
It’s a regional cliché, and like most clichés, it exists for a reason. Israelis have a reputation for being… enthusiastic drivers. Not necessarily careful ones.
