AP News. I'm Ed Donahue. At the urging of President Biden, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will send Israeli officials to Washington to discuss a prospective operation in Rafa. White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan says President Biden and Netanyahu talked at length on the phone today about a planned Israeli offensive in Rafa. "More than a million people have taken refuge in Rafa. They went from Gaza City, to Khan Yunus, and then to Rafa. They have nowhere else to go. Gaza's other major cities have largely been destroyed. And Israel has not presented us or the world with a plan for how or where they would safely move those civilians." The President is also worried about the growing humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The UN's Jamie McGoldrick says all roads need to be open. "Air and maritime are not alternatives. They're probably amends. Additions to the roads, but they can't be seen as alternatives."

Brian Fletcher is Deputy Solicitor General. "The court has said I think that the government is entitled to speak for itself. It's not a right that comes from the First Amendment. It's a feature of our constitutional democracy. As the court has said, the government couldn't function if it couldn't express points of view." Lawyers for Donald Trump told an appellate court in New York today that it's impossible for him to post a bond covering the full amount of his $454 million civil fraud judgment while he appeals.

Pakistani airstrikes have targeted suspected hideouts of the Pakistani Taliban in Afghanistan. "Killing at least eight people and drawing return fire from the group, Pakistan's military, do not immediately comment and it's not clear how deep inside Afghanistan that Pakistani jets flew. The airstrikes are the first since 2022 when Pakistan targeted militant hideouts in Afghanistan, although Islamabad never officially confirmed those strikes Monday's escalation is likely to further increase tensions between Islamabad and Kabul.
