Highlights: WP: the US is discussing restrictions for Israel on the use of American weapons. Earlier, the Pentagon said that the United States does not currently plan to send troops to Gaza. The US has also stepped up calls for Israel to call for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The Washington Post columnist David Ignates said that this reflects Washington’s acute disagreements with the Israeli leadership regarding the attack on Rafah. The U.S. President Joe Biden and his key advisers have not yet made any decisions on this issue.

Foreign policy columnist for The Washington Post David Ignates said that Washington is likely discussing the possibility of imposing restrictions on Israel on the use of American weapons in the event that the authorities of the Jewish state conduct a large-scale operation in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
