以色列为美国取消的关于拉法进攻计划的会议寻求新的日期

  

  Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant held wide-ranging discussions with senior U.S. officials this week and sought to lower the temperature between the two governments. Gallant, though not part of Netanyahu's inner circle, is a key architect of the campaign against Hamas in retaliation for the militants' Oct. 7 rampage that Israel says killed 1,200 people. Israel's military respo<em></em>nse has killed more than 32,000 Palestinians, according to the health authorities in the Hamas-run enclave. The Israeli team will still be led by Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer and Natio<em></em>nal Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi, two of Netanyahu's close confidants, according to a person familiar with the matter. The talks are expected to focus on Israel's threatened offensive in Rafah, wher<em></em>e more than a million displaced Palestinians are sheltering. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Wednesday, bout whether the U.S. might restrict military aid if Netanyahu defies Biden and presses ahead anyway. Biden, running for re-election in November, faces pressure not just from America's allies but from a growing number of fellow Democrats to rein in the Israeli military response in Gaza. Biden’s decision to abstain at the U.N., coming after months of mostly adhering to longtime U.S. policy of shielding Israel at the world body, appeared to reflect growing U.S. frustration with the Israeli leader. Netanyahu issued a stinging rebuke, calling the U.S. move a "clear retreat" from its previous position and would hurt Israel's war efforts and negotiations to free more than 130 hostages still held in Gaza. U.S. officials said at the time that the Biden administration was perplexed by Netanyahu's decision and considered it an overreaction, insisting there had been no change in policy.">

  以色列要求美国重新安排一次会议,讨论以色列在加沙地带拉法的军事行动。几天前,以色列总理内塔尼亚胡突然取消了对华盛顿的访问计划。

  白宫发言人卡琳·让·皮埃尔周三告诉记者:“我们正在与他们合作,寻找一个显然对双方都有利的方便日期。”

  内塔尼亚胡感到愤怒的是,美国周一没有否决联合国安理会(United Nations Security Council)的一项决议,该决议呼吁在加沙地带立即停火,并释放被关押在该飞地的俘虏。

  作为回应,他取消了以色列高级代表团访问华盛顿的计划,因为美以关系陷入新低。

  美国官员表示,乔·拜登(Joe Biden)总统的政府对取消决议感到困惑,认为这是对决议的过度反应,并坚称政策没有改变。

  会议的具体日期尚未确定,但美国新闻媒体Axios报道称,会议最早可能在下周举行。

  据一名美国官员透露,以色列代表团仍将由战略事务部长罗恩?德默和国家安全顾问扎奇?哈内格比领导,两人都是内塔尼亚胡的密友。

  尽管以色列的盟友和批评人士担心会造成大量平民伤亡,但内塔尼亚胡还是批准了长期受到威胁的对拉法的地面入侵计划。拉法是加沙最南端,约有150万流离失所的巴勒斯坦人在那里寻求庇护。

  联合国警告以色列,这样的行动“可能导致加沙的屠杀”。

  上周,内塔尼亚胡表示,以色列决心派兵进入拉法,如果有必要,将在没有美国支持的情况下这样做。

  半岛电视台的高级政治分析家Marwan Bishara说,内塔尼亚胡取消原定的会议是“愚蠢、愚蠢和短视的”。

  以色列总理对美国没有否决该决议感到愤怒,“因为他认为拜登听命于他”。他认为美国听命于以色列”,他补充道。

  内塔尼亚胡星期三说,他决定取消和谈是为了向哈马斯传递一个信息,即国际社会对以色列的压力不会促使哈马斯在没有哈马斯让步的情况下结束战争。
