Though Hamas released two American hostages on Friday, 10 Americans remain captive in Gaza as Israel gears up for a full-scale invasion.
Responding to questions from CBS News’s Margaret Brennan and NBC News’s Kristen Welker, Blinken focused on “the slaughtering of men, women, children” that occurred during Hamas’s unprecedented attack on October 7, and reiterated his belief in Israel’s “obligation to defend itself.” “We are not in the business of second-guessing what they’re doing,” he told Welker. “These are decisions that Israel has to make,” Blinken added.
” In his Sunday interviews, Blinken also addressed the possibility of a broader war breaking out in the region, as Israeli strikes have hit Hezbollah targets in Lebanon and airports in Syria. On Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that if Hezbollah, which supports Hamas, enters the conflict, it “will be making the biggest mistake of their lives. And we will hit them with an unimaginable force. It will mean devastation for them and the state of Lebanon.
