The White House said Friday it wanted to see Israel's plan for an operation in Gaza's Rafah that protects civilians, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved the military's proposal for an offensive.

"We haven't seen it. We certainly would welcome the opportunity to see it," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said, adding that the United States could not support any plan without "credible" proposals to shelter more than one million Gazans.
