US Democrats are urging President Biden to take action to prevent a potential Israeli assault on Rafah, a city in the Gaza Strip. The lawmakers are concerned about the escalating tensions between Israel and Palestine and the impact it could have on civilians in the region.
Rafah, located on the border between Gaza and Egypt, has been a focal point of conflict in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The city has experienced significant damage and casualties in previous conflicts, leading to fears of further violence if an assault were to occur.
