The US military is sending more missile defense systems to the Middle East and placing additional US troops on prepare-to-deploy orders in response to escalations throughout the region in recent days. The Israel Defense Forces' chief of staff told commanders Saturday that the military will 'enter the Gaza Strip' and initiate an operation to take out Hamas, but he did not provide a specific timeframe.

The Rafah crossing briefly opened Saturday morning to allow the first convoy of aid trucks to enter the besieged Gaza Strip from Egypt. Rights groups welcomed the short reopening, but stressed that more aid is desperately needed in the Palestinian enclave, where conditions continue to deteriorate. The US and its allies are urging Israel to set clear goals for a potential ground assault on Gaza, placing a particular emphasis on avoiding civilian casualties, US and Western officials told CNN.
