Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says a date has been set to invade Rafah in southern Gaza as truce talks with Hamas in Cairo are ongoing but do not appear close to the finish line.

“It will happen. There is a date,” he said on Monday without elaborating.

Senior Hamas spokesperson Sami Abu Zahry told Al Jazeera that Netanyahu’s remarks “raise questions about the purpose of resuming negotiations”.

“The success of any negotiations depends on ending the aggression,” said Zahry, adding that the group’s “demands are clear: an end to aggression against our people”.

Israel has so far rejected Palestinian demands of an unrestricted return of hundreds of thousands of Gaza Palestinians to the enclave’s north, and the retreat of Israeli military ground forces from the strip.

What is there to invade?

Nothing left to invade but still about 1.5 million Palestinians left in Rafah that Israel desperately wants to murder

So they have a final solution for the Palestine question?

Maybe we can send Israel some more weapons. That might stop this genocide. Have we tried sending more weapons?
