John Kirby, spokesperson for the U.S. National Security Council, confirmed that "if the extraction of hostages from Gaza requires a temporary ceasefire in certain areas, we support that," noting that the White House opposes the hateful rhetoric targeting Palestinian Americans, American Muslims, and Arab Americans. He stated, "America is not interested in entering into a conflict with Iran," explaining that "U.S. military operations in Syria and Iraq aim to prevent future attacks." He added, "I have reviewed reports concerning Israeli operations and will not comment on them." He concluded, "America does not set red lines for Israel."
