Mass exodus from Gaza? Egypt builds walled catchment area. US President Joe Biden confirmed to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that his country does not support a major Israeli attack on Rafah.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak also warned Netanyahu about the humanitarian consequences of such an attack, according to the government in London. Israeli offensive is likely despite international warnings, an insider said. The Israeli military recently released a video purporting to show Hamas leader Jihia Sinwar moving through a tunnel under the city of Bani Suheila. This is interpreted as evidence that he is in the Gaza Strip and can be caught.
