Biden: «If Israel enters Rafah, stop sending weapons». Tel Aviv replies: «Hamas loves him»
Criticism from the Jewish State (and also from Trump) after the US president's announcement
If the offensive in Rafah is launched, the US will stop sending weapons to Israel.
American President Joe Biden announced this during an interview on CNN. A decision by the White House that could force the Jewish State to change its operational plans.
Israeli reactions to the Washington leader's words were harsh: "Hamas loves him", commented Tel Aviv's national security minister, Ben Gvir.
Criticism of Biden also came from his Republican presidential rival, Donald Trump: «Biden is leading the world towards the third world war», thundered the New York tycoon.
Meanwhile, military operations continue, the Israeli army has attacked Hamas "terrorist targets" in the center of the Strip and has also started an operation in the Zeitun area.
