According to AFP Washington on February 11, the White House pointed out that Biden of the United States asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to take military action in Rafah until "there is no credible and viable plan" to protect the people of Rafah on the 11th.
According to the report, the United States noted in a communiqué that Biden "reiterated his view that military action in Rafah should not be taken without a credible and viable plan to ensure the safety of the more than a million Palestinians who have taken refuge there."
The White House also said that "* also called for urgent and concrete measures to accelerate the delivery of humanitarian assistance to innocent Palestinian civilians."
The report also said that the phone call between the two leaders came as Biden began to raise the tone against Israel. Biden said on the 8th, "I think the counterattack in the Gaza Strip is excessive", "There are a lot of innocent people who are starving, a lot of innocent people are struggling, they are dying, and this must stop".
In an interview released by ABC on the 11th, Netanyahu assured that the Israeli army would provide "safe passage" before attacking Rafah. (Compiled by Liu Zhuo).
