GENICHESK. TAVRIA. We reported earlier that the IDF is already on the outskirts of Rafah, the last town where Gaza civilians could hide, but it is no longer safe there either.

"Israeli tanks seized the Gaza side of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt on Tuesday, cutting off a vital aid route and forcing 80,000 people to flee the city this week, according to the United Nations," is stated in the article by Reuters.

The UN agency reports that "the toll on these families is unbearable."

The U.S. has threatened to stop supplying weapons to Israel if the military campaign in Rafah does begin. This could undermine the country's ability to destroy Hamas (the last Hamas members are hiding there). Regardless, the Israeli army has already taken control of the Zeitoun neighborhood, they started with airstrikes. We also reported before that three civilians were killed in a firefight in the east of Rafah.

Meanwhile, ceasefire talks continue in Cairo, with representatives from Hamas, Israel, the U.S., Egypt and Qatar in attendance. The article reported that "there were signs a deal would be reached."
