The IDF operation in the city of Rafah will still be expanded, but in a way that will not “concern” the United States.
The Israeli War Cabinet approved the expansion of the IDF operation in the city of Rafah, while its scale should not cause concern in the United States. This is what an Israeli official said, reports the local edition of The Times of Israel.
US President Joe Biden had earlier warned that he would cut off some arms sales to Israel if they were used in the Rafah offensive.
The operation will be limited, it is being done so as not to “upset” the Biden administration, the media said.
“Far-right ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich voted against this decision, but they were in the minority,” the report said.
As you know, Joe Biden said that in the event of a full-scale attack by the IDF on the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, the United States would not provide the Israelis with weapons that could be used in such an operation.
