Israeli offensive on Rafah is bad idea, French foreign minister tells PM Netanyahu - source

An Israeli offensive in Rafah is a bad idea and would not resolve anything in the country's fight against Hamas, France's foreign minister told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, according to a French diplomatic source.

"It is a bad idea to do it. There are too many uncertainties over the humanitarian issues", Stephane Sejourne told Netanyahu during a meeting at the prime minister's office in Jerusalem, the source with direct knowledge of the conversation said.
