Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided to postpone the possible ground invasion of the besieged Gaza Strip for an “indefinite period,” according to what was reported by the Israeli Walla website, amid estimates that the Israeli political leadership will not take a decision to invade the Strip before the expected visit of the president. The American, Joe Biden, to Israel.
It was reported that Biden, who arrives in Israel tomorrow, Wednesday, will meet with the mini-Israeli “war cabinet,” while US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, indicated that Biden “will also hear from Israel what it needs to defend its people while we continue to work with Congress to meet the needs of Israel.” Those needs."
He continued, "(The president) will hear from Israel how it will manage its operations in a way that reduces civilian casualties and helps the flow of humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza in a way that does not benefit Hamas."
