Relations between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appear to be deteriorating over the Gaza crisis. Both have come face to face with each other on this issue. Ignoring Biden's warning, Netanyahu has talked about launching a ground military operation in Gaza's Rafah. He said that we have a firm intention to attack. No one can stop us.
Along with this, Prime Minister Netanyahu said that the Israeli army will definitely go to Rafah. We have a red line. That red line is that now we will not allow an incident like October 7 to happen again. More than 1.3 million Palestinians have taken refuge in Rafah, located on the border of Egypt and Gaza. In such a situation, if Israel launches a ground attack here, huge losses are certain. A large number of people will be killed.
Earlier, US President Joe Biden had said that he would oppose the attack in Rafah. He had said that he cannot accept that 30 thousand more Palestinians should be killed. Netanyahu's approach to the war in Gaza is hurting Israel more than helping it. Even on Monday, President Biden gave a statement regarding the Israeli PM and said that at present there is no plan to meet with him.
The holy month of Ramzan has started. Palestinians in Gaza observed their first fast under the shadow of war. In this time of crisis, a large population of Gaza is on the verge of starvation. In such a situation, an organization had arranged iftari for the people. Palestinians, who had lost everything, offered prayers under the open sky. In times of crisis caused by the war between Israel and Hamas, life has become difficult for people.
All the helpless Palestinians are remembering the last year and sharing their pain with each other. Therefore, considering the situation, Iftar organization Maher Salout took the responsibility and made arrangements for Iftar for the people. Maher says that we are living in the shadow of war. People have nothing. Therefore, they have decided to arrange Iftar for the entire month. With this, a demand has been made to stop this ongoing war in Gaza.
It has been more than five months since the conflict between Israel and Hamas. The situation is very delicate. 80 percent of Gaza has been destroyed in Israeli attacks. More than 31 thousand people have died. 23 lakh people have been displaced. Therefore, they neither have a house to live in nor food to eat. Even medicine is not available for treatment. Children are dying of hunger and thirst, but the international community seems helpless and helpless.
Recently, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was criticized by US President Joe Biden. In a TV interview, President Biden had said that the way civilians are being killed in Gaza is not good for Israel. He said that Netanyahu's approach to the war in Gaza is harming Israel more than helping it. They have the right to protect themselves. But attention should also be paid to innocent Palestinians.
The US President had said that there should be a red line. The lives of 30 thousand people cannot be taken away like this. About 1.3 million Palestinians have taken refuge in Rafah, Gaza; attacking this area is a red line for Israel. Netanyahu should immediately stop attacks on Palestinians. While he raised questions on Netanyahu's working style, he also expressed support for Israel's right to take action against Hamas.
Despite this, it is believed that Biden's latest comments point towards his strained relations with Netanyahu. On the question of large number of people being killed in Gaza, Biden said that this is contrary to what Israel is committed to and I think it is a big mistake. He also said that Israel may lose international cooperation due to the large number of civilian deaths in Gaza.
