BY A STAFF REPORTER: The White House reiterated that the United States does not support a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

"We do not support a ceasefire at this time," White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said at a briefing. And that doesn't change, because we don't believe it will benefit anyone but Hamas at this point. '

"The United States supports a humanitarian ceasefire, but not a general ceasefire at this time," Kirby said.
