A high-ranking Israeli official said today, Sunday, that preparations are continuing to invade the city of Rafah, south of the besieged Gaza Strip, stressing that Tel Aviv “will not give up in any deal, if it is concluded, the goals of the war,” in light of threats to overthrow the government of Benjamin Netanyahu, against the backdrop of reports about the possibility of reaching a prisoner exchange deal with Hamas that would postpone the invasion of Rafah.
