Prime Minister Netanyahu denied an NBC report that he had reversed his decision not to send a delegation to the US to discuss the Rafah operation and other matters pertaining to the Gaza War after the US abstained on a cease-fire resolution passed by the UN Security Council.
Netanyahu had threatened to hold back the delegation if the US did not veto the UN resolution calling for a ceasefire without making that conditional on the release of the hostages. The US abstained, and Netanyahu announced the delegation would not leave for DC.
