US rejects Mideast ceasefire calls, says would benefit Hamas: State Dept


Washington (AFP) – The United States warns that any Gaza ceasefire by Israel would benefit Hamas, as the European Union considers a call for a humanitarian pause. A ceasefire would “give Hamas the ability to rest, to refit and to get ready to continue launching terrorist attacks against Israel,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller tells reporters.
