New York (USA): On the ongoing Israel-Hamas War, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on October 24 at the UN Security Council called it unlawful and unjustifiable. He further said that the council has a responsibility to denounce member states that arm, fund and train Hamas or any other terrorist group that carries out such horrific acts. “All acts of terrorism are unlawful and unjustifiable. Whether they target people in Nairobi or Bali, in Mumbai, New York or Kibbutz Be’eri. They’re unlawful and unjustifiable whether they’re carried out by ISIS, by Boko Haram, by Lashkar E Taiba, or by Hamas. They’re unlawful and unjustifiable whether victims are targeted for their faith, ethnicity, nationality, or any other reason”, said Antony Blinken.
