Dermer and the Negabi pledged to take into account the concerns of the White House regarding the Rafah operation. The US side emphasized in the conversation its concern about the courses of action that Israel is considering.
Israel and the US agreed to hold a follow-up face-to-face meeting as early as next week. The meeting that was supposed to take place last week, became an issue at the center of political and political tensions between Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Biden. Netanyahu decided last week to cancel the delegation's departure to Washington as a sign of protest that the US did not veto a resolution in the UN Security Council.
