Israel this week attacked Rafah, where more than one million Palestinians have sought refuge, but described it as a limited operation.A senior US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Washington had carefully reviewed the delivery of weapons that might be used in Rafah and as a result paused a shipment consisting of 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs.

That killed about 1,200 people with about 250 others abducted, of whom 133 are believed to remain in captivity in Gaza, according to Israeli tallies.
