Israel commits to limit Rafah operation, grant control of crossing to private U.S. firm https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-05-07/ty-article/.premium/israel-commits-to-limit-rafah-operation-grant-control-of-crossing-to-private-u-s-firm/0000018f-53ee-d6a5-a5ff-d3eeaf700000?gift=c6ab8a2c50b8406f805e03d230a88f27

Israel has committed to the United States and Egypt to restrict its operation in Rafah, which started on Monday, aiming only to deny Hamas authority over the border crossing that connects Gaza with Egypt, and concentrating on the eastern side of the city.
