Israel shelled Rafah on Thursday as US President Joe Biden offered his starkest warning yet over the conduct of its war against Hamas, vowing to cut off arms transfers if an offensive into the southern Gaza city goes ahead

Israel has defied international objections by sending in tanks and conducting “targeted raids” in the border city, which it says is home to Hamas’s last remaining battalions but is also crowded with displaced Palestinian civilians.

AFP journalists reported heavy shelling in Rafah early Thursday, and the Israeli military later said it was also striking “Hamas positions” further north in the centre of the Gaza Strip.

In an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Biden warned he would stop US weapons supplies to Israel if it pushed ahead with its long-threatened Rafah ground offensive.

“If they go into Rafah, I’m not supplying the weapons that have been used… to deal with the cities,” Biden said. “We’re not gonna supply the weapons and the artillery shells that have been used.”

On Tuesday, Israel forces seized Rafah’s border crossing into Egypt, which has served the main entry point for aid into besieged Gaza.

The White House condemned the interruption to humanitarian deliveries at the time, and the secretary of defence later confirmed Washington had paused, for the time being, a shipment of heavy bombs to Israel after it failed to address concerns over its Rafah ground incursion.

“Civilians have been killed in Gaza as a consequence of those bombs,” Biden said in his interview. “It’s just wrong.”

He insisted, however, that the United States was “not walking away from Israel’s security”.


The United States, along with Egypt and Cairo, has been heavily involved in talks currently under way in Cairo aimed at brokering a ceasefire in the seven-month war.

Extreme fear’ –

The Israeli military said Wednesday it was reopening another major aid crossing into Gaza, Kerem Shalom, as well as the Erez crossing.

But the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, said the Kerem Shalom crossing — which Israel shut after a rocket attack killed four soldiers on Sunday — remained closed.

Late Wednesday, the army said a soldier was lightly wounded when Kerem Shalom was again targeted by rockets.

The heavy shelling in Rafah overnight into Thursday followed a day of what the Israeli military said were “targeted raids on the Gazan side of Rafah crossing”, in the city’s east.

An army statement later on Wednesday said that Hamas naval commander Mohammed Ahmed Ali was killed in an air strike “in the past day”. Hamas did not immediately comment.

Civilian life in Rafah, meanwhile, “has completely ceased”, said displaced Gazan Marwan al-Masri, 35, noting “the streets are empty” in the western part of the city.

“We are living in Rafah in extreme fear and endless anxiety,” said Muhanad Ahmad Qishta, 29.

“Places the Israeli army claims to be safe are also being bombed,” he told AFP.

Catastrophic’ health situation –

An emergency doctor working in Rafah and nearby Khan Yunis said that with humanitarian access compromised, the health situation was “catastrophic”.

“The smell of sewage is rife everywhere,” said the doctor, James Smith. “It’s been getting worse over the course of the last couple of days.”

World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Wednesday that hospitals in southern Gaza had only “three days of fuel left” because of the border closures.

“Without fuel all humanitarian operations will stop.”

The war in Gaza was sparked by Hamas’s unprecedented October 7 attack on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of more than 1,170 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally of Israeli official figures.

Israel in response vowed to crush Hamas and launched a military offensive that has killed at least 34,844 people in Gaza, mostly women and children, according to the Hamas-run territory’s health ministry.

Militants also took about 250 hostages. Israel estimates 128 of them remain in Gaza, including 36 who officials say are dead.

Truce talks

Talks involving Qatari, US and Hamas delegations aimed at cementing a long-stalled ceasefire deal were ongoing Wednesday in Cairo, said Al-Qahera News, which is linked to Egyptian intelligence.

It noted that there were “points of contention” during the discussions, but also reported some “convergence” without elaborating.

A senior Hamas official said the latest round of negotiations would be “decisive”.

Hamas “insists on the rightful demands of its people”, the official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak publicly about the negotiations.

In Jerusalem, CIA director Bill Burns met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss the “possibility of Israel pausing the operation in Rafah in exchange for hostage releases”, an Israeli official said, also on condition of anonymity.

The Hamas official had previously warned the Cairo talks would be Israel’s “last chance” to free the hostages still in militants’ hands.

Mediator Qatar also appealed “for urgent international action to prevent Rafah from being invaded and a crime of genocide being committed”.

Palestinian analyst Mkhaimar Abusada said Israel’s seizure of the Rafah crossing could be an attempt to create new facts on the ground, or a bid to “sabotage the truce talks”.

Israel’s seizure of the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing came after Hamas said it had accepted a truce proposal — one Israel said was “far” from what its own negotiators had previously agreed to.

Netanyahu has described the Rafah operation as “a very important step” in denying Hamas “a age that was essential for establishing its reign of terror”.

I have never seen this kind of irresponsible military operation before, Israel is just bombing everywhere in Gaza killing innocent people, they don't even have post- invasion plan, so what happens after Rafah assault?

You don't kill civilians to appear strong, it's an act of cowardice

As for Biden, his hands are already soiled with the blood of innocent women and children, he says one thing to look good and does the opposite

The world is watching, we are watching everything

Civilian casualties will surely be high.

The US is fully in of this invasion. They'd speak in the media how they don't Israel's action but will whisper to them in private to intensify their attacks. Wonder why each time US secretary visit Netanyahu, Israel carry out more attacks.

Won't buy the US deceit they're together in every move Israel takes.

Go on Israel keep bombing until all terrorist are dead

Hamas is learning a brutal lesson about unwarranted aggression.

Hamas is alone in the classroom, while other terrorist groups are connected via Zoom.

Video conferencing technology is bae.

Yes! Smoke all terrorists. Kill them all.
If all terrorists world wide are dealt with in this manner, there will definitely be WORLD PEACE.

Biden vows arms suspension my foot, after giving them $26b in military aids.

Biden sabi barber some people head ehn.

Against at Daytime and With at Night... USA

By the ways, I'm waiting for one religious lunatic to comment. Una know am

Peace is all we want in our world 🌎

To think that some people here are cheering up the killing of innocent women and children, pray tomorrow they don't label your country a terrorist country, if they do and arrive with their tanks and guns, nobody will ask if you're Christian or Moslem, the only Language will be finish every thing breathing within area of target.

Isreal and USA are working hand in hand
Rafah remains the last stronghold of Hamas

🫤

Isreal pls e je ebure awo olugbebe…

I hate how innocent Palestinians are paying for what Hamas did. Honestly, when this war is over and another group with Hamas' ideology forms, it will take them 100 or 200 years to think of attacking Isreal again because they know the repercussion from history.

NO PEACE WITHOUT WAR!!

Another one...Dj Khaled

👍fact

Hmmmm let their be peace.

Go Israel, leave nothing unturned

Gh

Multitudes of children under the rubble. Shame, shame, shame. Tax payers money to kill day olds and toddlers, you'll meet what you put forward one day, that is definitely sure

If Biden do anyhow they will do away with him, stopping terrorists is the first priority of the west.

Release the hostages now, what do you gain exactly from holding tight to the hostages while ruining the lives of your people?

Whereas the IDF didn’t got the balls to go inside the tunnel cos they knw wat waiting for them. Most of the Americans army they claimed to be invincible hired by Israel have been liquidated, including the most famous redwolf sniper from British army. IDF isn’t winning but losing. Killing civilians is the only way to put pressure on Hamas. But it’s not working either, because the civilians doesn’t blame Hamas and call for Hamas to surrender. Instead, the young civilians are vowing to Hamas soldiers after the war. The Brits eventually got caught into it all. It's been the Rothschild Ashkenazic JEWS and their buddy JEWS.
