When the smoke of war rose again in the sky of the Middle East and the world shook the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Israel Defense Forces, with its great military strength and perseverance, launched an unprecedented military operation and dealt a devastating blow to the Hamas armed forces in the Gaza Strip. The scale and speed of this operation is staggering, reminiscent of the wars in the Middle East over the past decade, which have rarely been shown with such determination and intensity.
The recent large-scale rocket attacks by Hamas forces on Israel have challenged the IDF's bottom line. Thousands of home-made rockets rained down, accompanied by countless hidden militants quietly infiltrating into Israel, triggering a protracted showdown. The number of Israeli casualties has already exceeded 300, while Hamas forces have also suffered heavy blows, with more than 2,000 casualties. This battle is endless, the two sides do not give in to each other, like the desert under the scorching sun, the battle between fire and steel.
The IDF's retaliation against Hamas was aggressive and swiftly implemented a long-prepared battle plan. More than 60 warplanes, including F-15, F-16, F-35A and other types of warplanes, were the first to cross the border and launched large-scale air strikes on the Gaza Strip. This was followed by a ground offensive by four heavy brigades of the Israeli Army, backed by 300 full-track main battle tanks and more than 800 armoured combat vehicles. The IDF's sophisticated equipment and excellent combat effectiveness have given it a significant advantage in this military conflict.
However, the sudden outbreak of this conflict caught Israel by surprise. Even though Israel is known for its intelligence work, it has not been aware of Hamas's plan of action. This is undoubtedly one of the reasons why Israel suffered the most damage, and it also led to the inability of Israel's air defense forces to fully play their defensive role, and wasted a large number of advanced air and missile weapons.
In this conflict, the United States has made clear its support for Israel, while Iran has fully supported Hamas, putting them on the cusp of an international conflict. This military conflict is not only a dispute between Palestine and Israel, but also part of the regional struggle between the world's major military powers. This also once again highlights the long-standing war in the Middle East, the intertwining of international political disputes and the complex and changeable situation.
The outbreak of this military conflict is food for thought, and we cannot ignore the reasons and crises behind it. As middle-aged people, we know the preciousness of peace, and we understand the cost of war. In this challenging and contentious world, we should work harder to pursue peace, promote the settlement of disputes through dialogue and diplomacy and reduce the possibility of conflict. Only then will our children and grandchildren be able to live in a more peaceful and stable world.
At this turbulent time, we should unite and pay attention to the situation in the Middle East, reflect on the importance of peace, and strive for peace. After all, peace is not just a matter for one country or region, but a common responsibility of all mankind.
