The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) urged residents of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, to evacuate to nearby “safe” zones on Monday as a long-delayed attack by Israel against the last Hamas strongholds appeared to be imminent.

The apparent mobilization of the IDF came after Hamas fired rockets from close range at the Kerem Shalom crossing, where humanitarian aid crosses from Israel into Gaza, on Saturday, killing four soldiers and wounding several others.

The U.S. has been telling Israel, privately and publicly, not to attack Rafah since February. Israel insisted it would do so, regardless of international pressure and regardless of hostage talks, to complete its goal of destroying Hamas.

The IDF has been dropping flyers on Rafah with maps indicating where residents should take refuge during the fighting.

The IDF elaborated in a statement (original emphasis):

    In recent hours, flyers were dropped calling on the residents of eastern Rafah to evacuate temporarily toward the expanded humanitarian area.

    Calls to temporarily move to the humanitarian area are conveyed through flyers, SMS messages, phone calls and media broadcasts in Arabic.

    …

    Attached is the corrected version of the English translation to the flyers:

    Red flyer:

    To all residents and those currently in the areas of Al-Shuka, Al-Salam, Al-Janina, Taba Zaraa, and Al-Yarmouk, and the blocks: 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 28, 270.

    The IDF will be operating against the terrorist organizations in the area where you are located, as it has operated until now.

    Anyone found near terrorist organizations endangers themselves and their family members.

    For your safety, the IDF urges you to evacuate immediately to the expanded Humanitarian Area in the Al-Mawasi area.

    We warn you that Gaza City is still a dangerous active combat zone. Avoid returning north of Wadi Gaza.

    We warn you to stay away from the eastern and southern security fences.

    Israel Defense Forces.

    Blue flyer:

    The IDF announces the expansion of the humanitarian area in Al-Mawasi.

    From now on, the area will spread out from Deir al Balah in the north and up to blocks 2373, 2360, 2371 in the south and in the east to the center of Khan Yunis, as shown in the attached map.

    In this area the expanded humanitarian aid will continue.

    The IDF will continue fighting the terror organizations that use you as human shields.

    Therefore:

    Gaza City is a dangerous fighting zone; avoid crossing to the north of Wadi Gaza.

    It is prohibited to come near the eastern and southern security fences.

Report: Biden Administration Halts Ammunition Shipment to Israel

A shipment of U.S. ammunition bound for Israel last week was halted by the Biden administration for reasons yet to be made clear, a report Sunday claimed.

Israeli officials were left scrambling as to why the shipment was withheld, Axios reported, while CNN declared the decision was unrelated to U.S. opposition to an invasion of the Hamas terrorist stronghold of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The Biden administration recently signed off on $26 billion in military and humanitarian aid for Israel in its war against Hamas terrorists but officials have repeatedly warned against moving into Rafah, where over a million displaced Palestinians are sheltering from the war.

Biden Regime Cuts Off Ammunition Supplies to Israel as Advisors Panic Over Electoral Threat from Anti-Israel Democrats
by Ben Kew May. 5, 2024 6:20 pm

The Biden regime has cut off ammunition supplies to Israel as they attempt to appease the growing anger among the left of the Democratic Party over America’s support for the war against Hamas.

According to a report from Axios, the decision to put a hold on the ammunition shipment caused panic among the Israeli security services and is intended to prevent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from proceeding with an invasion of Rafah.

Axios notes:

    The Biden administration last week put a hold on a shipment of U.S.-made ammunition to Israel, two Israeli officials told Axios. It is the first time since the Oct. 7 attack that the U.S. has stopped a weapons shipment intended for the Israeli military.

    The incident raised serious concerns inside the Israeli government and sent officials scrambling to understand why the shipment was held, Israeli officials said.
