Quick Glance: Harris Warns of Consequences if Israel Invades Rafah
  • Vice President Kamala Harris warns Israel of possible 'consequences' if a planned invasion of Rafah continues in its pursuit of Hamas fighters.

  • The U.N. estimates that approximately 1.4 million people currently reside in the city located on Gaza's southern border with Egypt.

  • Harris emphasized in an interview with ABC News that a major military operation in Rafah would be a huge mistake and there is nowhere for the residents to go.

  • Despite U.S. concerns, Israel plans to invade Rafah to dismantle Hamas; Harris does not rule out 'consequences' from the United States.
