According to the Post, Officials including in the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) told the government that it would take months to evacuate civilians safely out of Rafah and offered their assistance in constructing adequate tent cities in safe zones, food, water and medicine for displaced Gazans, the report said.
The American offer was made to Jerusalem in recent weeks while discussions were underway on the planned Israeli offensive, and with the hope that it would be a limited one.
According to the IDF, some 300,000 Palestinians have already left Rafah since the offensive was launched. According to UNRWA, only 110,000 have left.
As the fighting continued, the IDF contacted more residents of eastern Rafah to evacuate to safety, using text messages, phone calls, Arab language media outlets and the dropping of leaflets.
Officials in Israel estimate that the U.S. does not oppose the offensive on the Strip's most southern city but expects an effective evacuation of civilians out of harms way.
