NETANYAHU DID NOT HEED THE WARNINGS
According to the written statement made by the Prime Ministry Press Office on March 14, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu stated that there was international pressure on them not to launch a land attack on Rafah, where Palestinians in the Gaza Strip took refuge, but that he would “repel them and enter Rafah”.
In the statement made by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office on March 15, it was announced that Netanyahu had approved a possible military operation plan to the south of the city of Rafah.
US President Joe Biden had spoken to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the phone and expressed his “deep concerns” about Israel carrying out a “comprehensive ground operation” against Rafah.
The Israeli administration has been saying for a long time that it will launch a land attack on Rafah, where approximately 1.5 million Palestinians have taken refuge.
The international community is calling on Israel not to take this step, stating that a land attack on Rafah, where Palestinians have taken refuge, will have serious consequences.
