CAIRO, Oct 15 — Egypt’s president Abdel Fattah al-Sisi told US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that Israel’s reaction to Hamas’ attack went beyond self-defence and amounted to collective punishment.

In televised comments during a meeting with Blinken in Cairo today, Sisi also said he rejects the targeting of any civilians in the ongoing conflict. — Reuters
