Netanyahu reiterated his determination to continuing Israel’s struggle against Hamas in a video message, saying that an Army activity would be launched soon in Rafah.  ,
קיבלתי היום דיווח מפורט על השיחות בקהיר, אנחנו פועלים כל הזמן להשגת מטרותינו ובראשן שחרור כל חטופינו והשגת ניצחון מוחלט על חמאס.
הניצחון הזה מחייב כניסה לרפיח וחיסול גדודי הטרור שם. זה יקרה- יש תאריך. photograph. twitter.com/KOhStmGSGp

Israel’s aims remain the similar, explained Netanyahu, “primarily releasing all our captives and achieving overall triumph over Hamas”, he confirmed. That success “requires entering Rafah and removing the criminal troops it.”
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant stated that powerful operations had resulted in the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Gaza, including Khan Younis, and that soldiers had been prepared for “our future missions,” including “in the Rafah area.”
More information about the IDF’s most recent initiatives via the Foundation for Defense of Democracies ( FDD):
The Army withdrew all of its ground forces from the north of Gaza miraculously between Saturday and Sunday, leaving just the Nahal Brigade in Gaza to protect the Netzarim Corridor. In the IDF’s Khan Younis rude, it dismantled the Hamas regiment in the area, killed dozens of extremists, and destroyed some 30 km of caves. A better strategy for addressing the conflict is now believed to be identify raids that are carried out based on intelligence that indicates a raid is required. In Khan Younis, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant stated that Hamas has ceased to be a military force, just as in Gaza City and the northern Gaza Strip. He added that the IDF is easily carrying out any activity required.  ,

Netanyahu’s announcement that a deadline has been set for the Army to commence expel Hamas and other terror groups supported by Iran has received a significant denunciation of reprimand from President Joe Biden and members of his cabinet, such as Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who claimed Israel was in danger of “unrecognizable” from Hamas.  ,
In a openly political move to bolster the support of terrorist- sympathizer Democrats in states like Michigan and Minnesota, President Biden’s past pledges of support for Israel were undone in a shocking display of hypocrisy by his leadership in the U.S.  ,
The Biden administration called for a ceasefire ( read: called for Israel to allow Hamas to survive ) and warned that if Israel did n’t do more to protect non-combatants, U.S. policy toward Israel might change due to a misidentification by IDF forces that led to the deaths of aid workers with World Central Kitchen.  ,
Never mind that Israel and its military already take extreme care to avoid civilians, which is almost impossible given Hamas ‘ plain-clothed terrorists embedding themselves in schools and mosques and using hospitals as command and control centers. Additionally, Biden ignores the fact that the IDF has “established a new standard for urban warfare.” Biden blames Israel for the hell that is the war started by Hamas on October 7 rather than acknowledging that the IDF uses advance notice to avoid hitting civilians and frequently allowing Hamas to escape. Hamas is the sole cause of all the death and destruction that has occurred in Gaza, which should not be difficult for Biden to comprehend.

Beyond being an insurmountable reversal that ought to frighten all of America’s allies, Biden’s abandonment of Israel following the IDF’s unintentional killing of aid workers is completely hypocritical. However, the Biden administration does n’t want you to remember that the strike that killed an aid worker, two other adults, and five children in Kabul was its final action.  ,
