Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved Friday a ground operation invading Rafah in the Gaza region, despite outcry from President Biden's administration.
Israel will commence an invasion into the Gaza city of Rafah, despite protests from the United States and other international powers. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced approval of the operation via his office on Friday. The Israeli Defense Force will invade the city in southern Gaza as part of its larger military operations in the region.
The U.S. government has repeatedly opposed Israeli plans to launch the Rafah ground invasion. The administration is said to have proposed a draft U.N. Security Council resolution, which in part would call for a temporary cease-fire and call on Israel not to go into Rafah in the Gaza Strip. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer went so far as to call for a change of leadership in Israel that is more willing to consider a cease-fire and abandon plans for further ground operations.
