Hamas is responsible for the civilian casualties in Gaza.
The IDF is going above and beyond to prevent civilian casualties and allow safe passage out of northern Gaza.
America must give Israel the time, resources and support it needs in its war to protect its families and drive Hamas out of Gaza.

As the IDF operates inside the Gaza Strip, more evidence is surfacing about the depravity of Hamas and its abhorrent use of civilians to hide its weapons.
Watch and share: Today the IDF published a video inside a building for children scouts in Gaza. Paintings on the walls show the scouts hiking and chopping wood – but then the camera pans to show rows of rocket launchers pointed toward Israel.
In another video, we see a row of launchers buried in the ground with electrical wires leading inside a mosque.
Hamas has hijacked civilian infrastructure in Gaza and turned it into launching pads for terror.
Mosques, schools, homes, playgrounds and hospitals used by Hamas for terrorism are legitimate military targets for Israel.
Israel also released footage showing Hamas terrorists launching rounds of mortars while wearing civilian clothes, allowing them to hide among non-combatants and be counted as civilians when they are killed.
Notably, media reports that rely on figures from the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry never distinguish between civilian casualties and terrorists killed.
Hamas is responsible for the civilian casualties in Gaza.
Earlier today, the IDF reopened an evacuation route for Gazan civilians to move south for their safety. The passageway was attacked by Hamas last week as Israel tried to secure the route.
Israel is going above and beyond to prevent civilian casualties and allow safe passage out of northern Gaza.
The IDF has made 20,000 phone calls, dropped 1.5 million leaflets, sent 4.4 million text messages, and sent 6 million voice messages urging Gazans to evacuate south.
Israelis continued to endure rocket fire from Hamas in the south and the north today – with Iron Dome intercepting barrages over Israeli cities and towns. More than 30 rockets were fired at cities in the north, and Israel responded by striking the rocket launch sites used by Hamas in Lebanon.
