JERUSALEM (VINnews) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has decided to postpone the planned operation in the Gazan city of Rafah, according to a report by Kan news Sunday evening.

The report comes a week after Netanyahu announced that there is a date for action in Rafah. In the past he stressed that there could be no victory in Gaza without conquering Rafah.
Earlier on Sunday, the IDF said that, in accordance with the situational assessment, it is calling up approximately two reserve brigades for operational activities on the Gazan front.
“Their mobilization will allow the continuous effort and readiness to defend the state of Israel and the security of civilians,” the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said in a statement.
The US administration has repeatedly stressed its opposition to an Israeli operation in Rafah. Secretary of State Blinken, who recently visited Israel, reiterated that position and said, “We share Israel’s goal of defeating Hamas, which is responsible for the worst massacre of the Jewish people since the Holocaust. And we share the goal of ensuring Israel’s long-term security. As we’ve said, though, a major military ground operation in Rafah is not the way to do it.”
US Vice President Kamala Harris told ABC News in late March that she would not rule out “consequences” if Israel carried out a military operation in Rafah.
To not utterly destroy Hamas would be disaster
The U.S. runs Israel. Biden is only interested in votes and to get pride and glory for making a two state dissolution.
Netanyahu is stuck with the two traitors Gantz and Eizenkot who prevents him to govern. Not going into Raphah means the end of the hostages and the end of the war with Hamas and the loss of all the true and holy Israeli soldiers who fought for nothing. I hope that this above-mentioned forecast is not true as this would also mean the end of the State of Israel.
May Hashem protect us from our weak leaders and from our so-called friends in the US. For such people as Biden enemies would be better…
“A major military ground operation, in Rafah, is not the way to do it”?!!! It’s the ONLY way to defeat Hamas! What if “peaceniks” told the Allies “a major milirary ground offensive in Germany is not the way to defeat the Nazis”: Would the US have given in to a vocal minority?
Thank you Biden
