Democrats say Biden caved on ‘red line’ warning in Rafah

Liberal Democrats are going after President Joe Biden for his approach to Israel’s incursion into Rafah, accusing the president of caving on his “red line” warning to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to storm into the city for fear of outsized civilian casualties. U.S. officials said that Israel’s actions in Rafah do not meet the criteria of a “major ground operation” that would breach Biden’s red line. International outrage continued to mount over Israel’s operations in Rafah. The U.S. expressed concerns but has not classified it as a major ground operation yet.
