Blinken: The world is safer without ‘brutal terrorist’ Nasrallah
The world is safer after Israel’s killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, the top US diplomat says, describing the Iran-backed Lebanese terror group’s leader as a “brutal terrorist.”
“The region, the world are safer without him,” Antony Blinken says, even as he insists that “diplomacy remains the best and only path to achieving greater stability in the Middle East” and vows the United States will continue working “urgently” to secure a ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian terror group Hamas in Gaza.
