Trump’s reaction to Gaza church strike ‘not positive’: White House

Trump’s reaction to the Israeli strike on Gaza’s Holy Family Catholic church was “not positive”, said White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt.

“He (Trump) called [Israeli] Prime Minister Netanyahu this morning to address the strikes,” Leavitt said during a press briefing. “I understand that the prime minister agreed to put out a statement … it was a mistake by the Israelis to hit that Catholic church, that is what the prime minister relayed to the president.”
