Whether or not expanding military operations crosses Joe Biden’s red line remains unclear
In a vote last night – and despite instructing negotiators to continue efforts to reach a deal on the hostages – his security cabinet Israel approved the “measured magnificationher business of Israeli forces in Rafah, the website Axios reported today, citing unnamed sources.
According to Axios, two of its sources said the expansion of the military operation would not cross Joe Biden’s red line, while the third source said it could be seen as crossing the line set by the US president, as he stops a portion of US military aid to Israel.
An Israeli ground attack on Rafah would lead to “a massive humanitarian disaster”, its Secretary-General warned today UNafter Israeli and Hamas negotiators walked out of cease-fire talks in Cairo without an agreement.
“A massive ground attack on Rafah would lead to a massive humanitarian disaster and end our efforts to support populations as famine threatens,” UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said during a visit to Nairobi.
The situation in this town in the southern Gaza Strip is “on a razor’s edge,” he added.
