Sec. Blinken: Hamas Continues to Use Civilians as Human Shields

‘Civilians should not be used in any way as the targets of military operations’

EXCERPT:

BLINKEN: “Hamas continues to use civilians as human shields, something that’s not new, something that they’ve always done, intentionally putting civilians in harm’s way to protect — to try to protect themselves or protect their infrastructure, or protect their weapons. So that’s one of the basic facts that Israel has to deal with. And of course, civilians should not be used in any way as the targets of military operations. They are not the target of Israel’s operations.”
