The US and Israel will hold a virtual meeting about a possible ground invasion of Rafah today at the White House, two officials told NBC News.
This is a follow-up to the April 1 meeting on the same issue, which reportedly included voices raised by US officials who did not trust Israeli plans to deal with humanitarian concerns about the operation.
Today's meeting will be chaired by National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and will include representatives from the Pentagon, including senior US military planners.
However, President Joe Biden is not expected to attend. Rafah is the only major city in Gaza that has yet to be attacked by Israeli troops from the ground, but the hundreds of thousands of displaced civilians huddled in the city are still subject to airstrikes in recent months. However, in an effort to prevent him from attacking Iran, it appears he will allow them to attack Rafah!
