Reporter there has been a flurry of diplomatic activity in the region with hamas also feeling the heat. The only thing standing between the people of gaza and a ceasefire is hamas. Reporter but once again the Secretary Of State made it very clear, without a plan to protect civilians, the u. S. Does not support a rafah offensive, saying the terrible suffering in gaza must end.
