TL;DR Summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows to defy U.S. President Joe Biden's warning and proceed with an invasion of Rafah in the Gaza Strip, citing the need to prevent another terror attack like the Oct. 7 Hamas raid. Despite international pressure for a cease-fire, Netanyahu predicts the conflict could end within two months and dismisses the idea of a two-state solution. He also leaves open the possibility of military action against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon to facilitate the return of people who have fled their homes in northern Israel due to fear of cross-border attacks.
