He fully supports Israel and the IDF and the actions they have taken in recent days, she says after a question about whether the US President Trump is trying to get the parties to return to the previous ceasefire agreement.

The President has been very clear to Hamas that if they do not release all the hostages, hell will break loose, and unfortunately, Hamas has chosen to play a game in the media where human lives are being risked.

Leavitt says that the situation is entirely the fault of terrorist-stamped Hamas after their bloody attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

The Hamas-controlled civil defense authority in Gaza updated the death toll to 504 people on Thursday since Israel resumed attacks earlier in the week. 190 of these are said to be children.
