Leaders of Canada, Australia and New Zealand have warned Israel against a "catastrophic" ground incursion into the southern Gazan city of Rafah, calling for an immediate humanitarian cease-fire. In a joint statement, the three nations urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "not go down this path." In a post on social media on Wednesday, Netanyahu said, "we will fight until complete victory and this includes a powerful action in Rafah as well, after we allow the civilians population to leave the battle zones."

Israel has steadily expanded ground operations in Gaza toward the south, leaving Rafah as one of the last refugees for over half of the enclave's 2.3 million residents fleeing the violence. The city's population, which stood at approximately 250,000 before the war, has ballooned to at least 1.3 million, with several UN agencies estimating there is actually around 1.5 million people in the city.
