US Secretary of State Antony Blinken expects clear consequences if Israel's army invades the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip. The Rafah offensive risks isolating Israel in the world, Blinken said after a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Netanyahu: "If necessary, we will do it alone" Blinken disappointed that a US draft resolution for a ceasefire failed in the United Nations Security Council. Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, said the resolution had been highly politicized.
