Biden: The Israeli response in Gaza exceeded the limit, and it convinced Sisi to open the Rafah crossing. The American President spoke about the contacts he has been conducting since the beginning of the war with Qatari, Egyptian, and even Saudi officials.
Earlier Thursday, the White House said that it would not support any Israeli plans to carry out major military operations in Rafah, and that negotiations were continuing regarding the release of detainees and the completion of a truce agreement in Gaza. The devastating Israeli war on Gaza has entered its fifth month and most of its victims are children and women.
