US President Joe Biden called the Israeli operation in Rafah an American operation. The US's solidarity with Israel was once again evident in his comments. In a report on Tuesday (February 13), the American news media CBS News reported the information.

According to reports, the president sparked controversy by calling Israel's operation in Gaza's Rafah Valley a US operation. Later, however, realizing the mistake, he changed the word mid-sentence. Evidence of this is also found in the written message of the White House.

Many consider the United States to be the main instigator behind the Israeli offensive in Gaza. The country has also given billions of dollars in arms aid to Tel Aviv. However, Washington claims that they are not directly involved in the war in Gaza.
