The rescue took place near Rafah, a southern Gaza city President Joe Biden insisted the IDF leave alone. 

Southern Gaza is where the IDF and Shin Bet recovered a hostage alive today.

Southern Gaza is where the Biden Administration repeatedly told Israel not to operate.

The rescue comes shortly after Hamas rejected yet another ceasefire offer that required the return of all hostages. Eight Americans are being held. Five are thought to be alive.
