The White House Says It’s the ‘Right Time’ for Israel to Scale Back Its War in Gaza

White House national security spokesperson John Kirby said Sunday that it is the “right time” for Israel to scale back its war in Gaza.
CBS’s Margaret Brennan asked Kirby on “Face the Nation” if the U.S. is pushing Israel to move toward lower-intensity fighting as the war hit its 100th day on Sunday. Israel has signaled in recent days that it will tone down the fighting as it withdraws and rotates out several military units in Gaza amid U.S. pressure.
“I can tell you, Secretary Blinken just came from the region, that we have been talking to them intensely about a transition to low-intensity operations. We believe it’s the right time for that transition,” Kirby said on Sunday. “And we’re talking to them about doing that.”
