 Meanwhile, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken says the United States is sending a diplomat to urge Israelis and Palestinians to come hiring violence, saying Israel had a particular responsibility to avoid civilian casualties. Blinken said both sides must reduce violence. He drew a distinction between a terrorist organization, a mass that is indiscriminately raining down rockets targeting civilians, and Israel's response defending itself. We're deeply concerned about what we're seeing there. Images that came out overnight are harrowing, and the loss of any civilian life is a tragedy. I've asked Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Hadi Amar to go to the region immediately to meet with Israeli and Palestinian leaders. He will bring to bear his decades of experience, and in particular he will urge on my behalf and on behalf of President Biden a de-escalation of violence. We strongly condemn the rocket attacks coming out of Gaza that are targeting innocent Israeli civilians, and Israel has a right to defend itself. Palestinians have a right to live in safety and security, and the most important thing going forward now is to take down the violence to de-escalate, and that's exactly what we're working toward.
