Kirby noted that Israel and Egypt are the two most significant players in the efforts.
"We are having active conversations about trying to allow for that safe passage," Kirby said. "It's the civilians who did nothing wrong so we want to make sure they have a way out."
Kirby did not release any other details, such as whether aid groups would be able to use the safe corridors to bring in supplies.
