WASHINGTON — According to
White House National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby, in a statement to reporters, he said, "We believe that if a pause could be effective in allowing for the departure and release of hostages, then that is something we would absolutely support, and we believe Israel should support it." He added that the U.S. has been actively engaging in discussions with Israel, expressing White House support for humanitarian pauses to allow
aid to reach Gaza.
