Netanyahu makes it 'supremely clear' to Biden that Rafah invasion necessary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that a ground invasion of Rafah was the only way to "complete the elimination" of Hamas in the city.

The comments came after Washington urged Israel to rethink invading the southern city, where over 1 million displaced Palestinians are sheltering in tents and makeshift homes.

Briefing lawmakers on Tuesday, Netanyahu said that he made it "supremely clear" to US President Joe Biden "that we are determined to complete the elimination of these battalions in Rafah, and there's no way to do that except by going in on the ground".
