Rinsing Dishes

I’d like to know if it is permissible on Shabbos to rinse dishes right after use before placing them in the sink to be washed after Shabbos. Thanks for your service.

Answer:

Giving dishes a short rinse in order to prevent smell and flies from the dishes, and/or to prevent the dirt from becoming caked on and becoming very difficult to clean after Shabbos, is permissible.
