White House
TEHRAN, (MNA) – The White House is reluctant to provide material support for Israel's operation in Rafah in the Gaza Strip, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said.
"What the President [Biden] made clear on CNN is that we do not want to provide material support to such an operation [in Rafah], she said at a briefing aboard Biden’s place on the way to San Francisco.
Earlier, Biden said in an interview with CNN that the United States would stop supplying weapons to Israel if its military entered Rafah in the Gaza Strip, TASS reported.
Israel waged its brutal war on besieged Gaza on October 7 after Hamas carried out an unprecedented operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
Israel has imposed a complete siege on the densely populated territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
