Blinken calls for thorough investigation into killing of journalist in Lebanon by Israeli tank
TL;DR
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has called on Israel to conclude and release the findings of its investigation into the artillery strikes that killed a journalist and injured six others in Lebanon. Blinken's comments come after rights groups, including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, found evidence suggesting that the strikes were deliberate and may constitute a war crime. Israel's military is currently reviewing the circumstances of the attacks but has not yet released any findings. At least 63 journalists have been killed since the start of the war in Gaza.
