After a new demand from the White House to avoid a major operation in Rafah, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a closed meeting of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that Israel will enter the southern Gaza city, Ednews reports citing Times of Israel.
“The Americans asked that we not do an operation in Rafah,” he said, “but there is no other choice. We need control over the Philadelphi Route,” he continued, referring to the border route running along the Egypt-Gaza border.
