from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB
A growing line of countries is heaping pressure on Israel to stop its ground offensive in southern Gaza. More than 1.5 million Palestinians are currently sheltering in the small border town of Rafah. It comes as ceasefire talks continue in Cairo between the CIA, Israel, and Qatar, in exchange for more hostages. Israel journalist Haggai Matar told Mike Hosking that Israel fully intends going ahead with the attack in Rafah. He says it's hoped it's part of the negotiation to put pressure on Hamas and mediators to reach an agreement on a hostage release, but it's looking very serious.
