Obama instead condemned the Palestinian groups for killing Israeli soldiers.
"I think it's important to note that we have, and I have, unequivocally condemned Hamas and the Palestinian factions responsible for killing two Israeli soldiers and abducting a third almost minutes after a ceasefire has been announced," Obama said in the briefing room of the White House in Washington on Friday.
The US president also urged Hamas to commit to the ceasefire.
"I think it's going to be very hard to put a ceasefire back together again if Israelis and the international community can't feel confident that Hamas can follow through on a ceasefire commitment," he said.
President Obama promised the United States will continue to work with Tel Aviv to enable it to protect itself against Palestinian resistance fighters.
American lawmakers have approved a bill to provide $225 million in emergency aid for Israel's Iron Dome missile system.

The Pentagon earlier announced its ammunition deliveries to Israel.
Israel has been relentlessly pounding the besieged territory for 25 days. More than 1,600 Palestinians have been killed and thousands wounded, including women and children.
In retaliation, Palestinian resistance fighters have fired rockets into Israel.
Israel and Hamas had agreed to an unconditional 72-hour ceasefire which took effect on Friday. However, Palestinian sources said Israeli forces violated the truce shortly after it took effect, killing four people in the town of Rafah south of Gaza.
The dumbed down Americans live in a different reality because they're ignorant. But these psychos, having access to all the information, must make an active effort to convince themselves of this "reality" that they're making up. I wonder what it's doing to their brains.
