President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a phone call this week, with Israeli officials slated to head to Washington. According to David Wurmser, a Middle-Eastern affairs analyst at the Center for Security Policy, Israel has a plan for humanitarian evacuation ahead of its impending ground operation into the city of Rafah.
However, the Biden administration says Israel has not provided a plan for the safe evacuation of Palestinians from the area. “When the administration sees something it doesn’t like, it just denies its existence,” Mr. Wurmser told NTD.
