The Biden administration has assessed that Israel has amassed enough troops on the edge of the city of Rafah in Gaza to potentially move forward with a full-scale incursion in the coming days. However, senior US officials are uncertain if Israel has made a final decision to carry out such a move in direct defiance of President Joe Biden.
One of the officials warned that Israel has not adequately prepared for potentially evacuating over one million Gazans who currently reside in Rafah. This lack of preparation includes building infrastructure related to food, hygiene, and shelter.
