It is reported that the Israeli military cabinet has gathered to discuss a possible ground offensive on Rafah
Israeli media reported that a meeting of the military cabinet was held in Tel Aviv.

About a possible Israeli ground offensive on Rafah
The city of Rafah, located south of Gaza on the border with Egypt, was home to about 280,000 Palestinians before the Israeli attacks.
Due to the Israeli attacks on October 7, 1.9 million people were forced to leave their homes in the Gaza Strip, which has a population of 2.3 million people.
Most of the displaced Palestinians have found refuge in Rafah, which Israel previously called "safe." With the influx of refugees from the northern regions, the population of Rafah has more than quadrupled and reached 1.5 million people.
Due to the lack of adequate housing, most of the Palestinians who have found refuge in Rafah are struggling to survive in camps consisting of makeshift tents.
The Israeli army carries out frequent airstrikes on the city of Rafah. There are fears that if Israel launches a ground attack on the city of Rafah, civilians will not be able to find shelter in the Gaza Strip.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has repeatedly stated that he approved the plan to attack Rafah despite international warnings, said in a statement on April 8 that the date of the attack had already been set.
Israeli state television KAN reported that the Israeli army would launch a ground attack on Rafah "very soon".
