Quick Glance: Israeli Forces Ready to Conquer Rafah in Gaza, Awaiting Government Approval

The Israel Defense Forces have completed all necessary preparations to capture the southernmost city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip and can initiate an operation once they receive government authorization, as stated by a senior Israeli defense official.

This official informed Reuters that Israel is planning to take control of Rafah, considered the final Hamas stronghold in Gaza, evacuate Palestinian civilians from the area, and launch an assault against Hamas fighters.

According to a spokesperson for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, Israel is progressing with a ground operation without specifying a timeline for the action.

Various Israeli reports indicated that top Israeli security officials traveled to Egypt on Wednesday to coordinate the planned offensive in Rafah.

Quick Glance: Biden signs Comprehensive Military Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan

President Biden announces the signing of a substantial $95 billion military assistance package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, with a significant portion of the funds directed towards Ukraine.

Despite initial resistance from Republicans in Congress, Biden has signed the aid package, highlighting the reinforcement of allies and ensuring prompt deliveries to Ukraine.

The assistance for Ukraine includes weapons and military equipment valued at around $1 billion, encompassing artillery shells and air defense missiles.

Military analysts do not foresee significant changes on the frontlines in eastern Ukraine, while the US support aims to aid Ukraine in operations in southern Ukraine, particularly focusing on Crimea and the Black Sea.
