Washington denies receiving a plan from Israel regarding Rafah, and Britain is considering restricting arms supplies. The attack on Rafah will lead to horrific massacres and more humanitarian disasters, according to regional and international (European) warnings.
Israel is threatening to invade Rafah as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that refraining from carrying out a military operation there may mean losing the war. But the United States, Israel's biggest backer in its war on Gaza, has not indicated that it might stop the flow of weapons to the Israeli army.
