Burrell: Israel’s attack on Rafah worsens the situation

Fars News Agency International Group; “As long as the war in Gaza continues, it is difficult to imagine the situation improving in the Red Sea because the two are related” EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell made these comments expressing deep concern over Tel Aviv’s decision to expand the Gaza war.

According to the Associated Press news agency, the media yesterday ) published reports about the intention of the Israeli army to extend the war in Gaza to Rafah on the border of Gaza with Egypt, which has caused a wave of concern among the member states of the European Union because more than a million people have fled to this city to escape the war in Gaza. have taken refuge.

Burrell responded to this decision of the Zionist regime by emphasizing that one million Palestinians have been gradually displaced on the Egyptian border and said that “Israel claims that these are safe areas, but in reality what we are witnessing is that The impact of the bombing on the civilian population continues and creates this dire situation”.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said last Thursday that the Israeli army will go to Rafah after the end of the operation in Khan Yunis, but he did not announce a specific timetable for that.

Political analysts and Western officials believe that the entry of the Zionist regime army into Rafah will drive Palestinian prisoners to Egypt, weaken Tel Aviv’s compromise agreement with Cairo, and provoke the anger of the United States. In addition, Israel’s very slow peace talks with Hamas are also in jeopardy. Gaza has created a “domino effect” so that the war has spread to Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and the Red Sea.
