I can't go into the details of our conversations today except to say that our Egyptian counterparts were in communication with Hamas as early, as recently as a few hours ago.
We have offered them nothing not to invade Rafah except a plan to deal more effectively with Rafah.
The United States and other world leaders stand by that comprehensive proposal that President Biden laid out 10 days ago.
We assess that Hamas has recruited almost as many new militants as it has lost. That is a recipe for an enduring insurgency and perpetual war.
