Despite the Rafah massacre, the US says Israel has not yet crossed Biden's 'red line'

US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby has claimed that Israel has not violated President Joe Biden's "red line" to make Washington stop in the near future providing Tel Aviv with offensive weapons because the US feels that Israel will not launch a ground operation to fully invade the city. of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

Despite issuing a statement condemning the genocide committed by the Zionist regime over the weekend in the refugee camp in Rafah, which led to the martyrdom of 50 Palestinians and 250 wounded, describing the killing as "heartbreaking" and "horrific", but Kirby has said that the United States does not plan to make any changes in its policies due to Israel's actions.

He added that the United States is monitoring the results of the investigation carried out by Israel itself regarding what the government of the Zionist regime has called a "correctly executed attack".

This is happening while the Zionist regime continues to change from time to time the details of its 'narrative' regarding what happened especially in the attack on Sunday night in the Palestinian refugee camp in Rafah, south of Gaza.

Earlier, the Israeli army said it had carried out "precision strikes" using "precision weapons" targeting Hamas members in Rafah where displaced Palestinians had sought refuge. But after the brutal attack drew international condemnation, Israel's hawkish prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the Rafah attack a "catastrophic mistake." And now the illegal Zionist regime is claiming that the killing of Palestinian civilians was the result of a second explosion that occurred after its attack targeting two Hamas fighters.

Photos and videos showing bodies torn apart and burned by fire, some of them being children's, have raised international cries and strong emotions and made tens of thousands of people take to the streets and protest in Western cities to condemn the Israeli crime. ../
