In the tightly packed southern Gaza town of Rafah, where tents fill every available space, Palestinians struggle to survive amidst the ongoing conflict with Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu dismissed US President Biden's threat to halt arms sales over a potential ground operation in Rafah. Netanyahu asserted Israel's ability to stand alone and fight fiercely if needed, citing historical precedent. Despite Biden's concerns about civilian casualties, Netanyahu remains determined. The US decision to pause bomb shipments to Israel further underscores escalating tensions between the two allies.
