## Transcript

Israelis that bomb Iran's consulate building in Damascus today barely killed in a rainy and military commander. Did you know about this in advance you concerning? This is an escalation. Look I'm aware of the reports. Our team is looking into it. So I'm not going to get ahead of anything just yet. But obviously were aware of the reports and our team is looking into it was not going to go beyond that banning International media from working in Israel you always so as it relates to and I think you were speaking specifically research reports that we've seen is about Al Jazeera zero specifically, but it doesn't matter whichever right journalist more broadly, but at to those particular report, we've seen the reports and so I'm going to refer to Israel for what day may or may not be considering but it is if it is true if it is true a move like this is concerning we believe in the freezer.

It is critical. It is critically important and the United States supports the critically important work journalists around the world do and so and that includes those who were reporting in in the conflict in Gaza. So we believe that work is important. The freedom of the press is important. And if those reports are true, it is concerning to us.
