Israel has finally attacked Rafah, and many people believe that after more than 200 days of entanglement with Hamas, the Israeli army should have enough combat experience, and maybe this time it will be able to eliminate Hamas like a melon and a vegetable cut.
In fact, it's really too much, and the Israeli army has not grown at all!
Hamas's elusive tunnels are still able to attack from the side of Israeli tanks, which, as always, are unaccompanied by infantry, Yasin 105mm rockets, three shots into the soul, knocking down three armored units.
At the same time, Israel also made the mistake of shelling friendly forces for the third time:
The 202nd Battalion of the IDF's Paratrooper Brigade was assigned to carry out a mission near the Jabaliya refugee camp, which is actually in the north of Gaza, don't ask why it's not in the south, Gaza is so big... Not as big as Beijing's Haidian District.
When the 202nd Battalion was working in Israel, it made the same mistake as before, wandering through the window and sticking out the barrel of the gun, and this scene was discovered by the Israeli Merkava forces. So a shot was fired, and I was afraid that I would not die completely, and another shot came, killing five and wounding seven, and three seriously wounded.
Of course, it is far less tragic than the last time when 21 people were directly reimbursed, and those 21 people were planting explosives in the building.
Of course, the Israeli army, which was also at the window, was greeted by Hamas rockets, so in order to counterattack, Israeli artillery fire covered the Jabaliya refugee camp for one round – it is said that this is the 200th time since the start of the war that the Jabaliya refugee camp has been covered by artillery fire.
Of course, the funniest thing is that the Merkava tank crushed a hive, and hundreds of wasps and Hamas swarmed out, directly sending 10 Israeli soldiers to the hospital, one of whom was admitted to the intensive care unit.
According to the battle report of the Hamas Kassang brigade, yesterday the public killed 19 Israeli troops, wounded 28 and destroyed 7 armored units:
Of course, as for ambushes, the level of Hamas soldiers has always been stable:
Of course, Israel has also been more strained off the battlefield, and American officials admit that even more irritating than the humanitarian catastrophe is that Israel has completely failed to think about what it will do in Gaza even tomorrow.
What about Rafa? Who will run Gaza? Israel refuses to recognize the existence of Hamas and does not allow Fatah to take over, so what will happen to Gaza? Israel did not think about it at all.
Israel does not have any war goals, they only believe that Hamas is all in Rafah, and everything is done with Rafah. It also demanded that Rafah's 1.4 million residents be evacuated to a "refugee area" smaller than Hong Kong's airport
Israel first concentrated more than 2 million Palestinians in Gaza, which is just over 300 square kilometres, and imprisoned them for more than half a century. Then they were driven to southern Gaza one after another, to Rafah, which is only more than 60 square kilometers. Under intense pressure from the international community, Israel eventually designated an 8.5-square-kilometre "final refuge" for Gazans.
In such a small place, Israel wants to concentrate 1.4 million Palestinians here... No water or electricity!
In fact, the Al-Aqsa flood operation launched by Hamas last year was not an impromptu action, but an operation that was prepared for several years, because in terms of absolute strength, Hamas cannot flatten Israel, so Hamas's strategy is to consume Israel, consume Israel through protracted raids and wars, and persevere.
So far, none of the Israeli army's actions have exceeded Hamas's expectations - otherwise how could Israel have not found the hundreds of hostages after half a year?
The only explanation is that Hamas may have imagined countless times before what the Israeli army would do and how it would fight, and had made a plan to deal with it, and even did not rule it out.
Who can prove that these hostages, as well as the top Hamas leadership, are in Rafah? Did Hamas think before the war that Israel would block and occupy Egypt's ports? Will Gaza be cut off from the center? Will there be an all-out attack? I must have thought of it all and had a way to deal with it.
In fact, the U.S. military also ended:
The U.S. military spent 300 million yuan to build a temporary pier connected to the Israeli Nazarim corridor, and Hamas's main strategy is to wear down Israel, that is, to launch attacks on Israeli strongholds, or ambush Israeli troops. This corridor will certainly be the main position of the Hamas ambush in the future.
It was never a head-to-head confrontation with the Israeli army, so the outcome of the war in Rafah would be no different from that in northern Gaza.
That's what Israel is doing with great fanfare, and Hamas continues to shoot black guns.
Hamas is also not short of manpower, and a large number of tunnels still exist, and even supplies have not been cut off.
The simple reason is that Israel itself has created a blood feud, and there are many Palestinians in Israel, which must have a huge network and support system for Hamas to continue to exist.
The Russian-Ukrainian battlefield has proved that trenches made of barbed wire during World War II will not do much now.
And the battlefield in Gaza has proved that the covered trenches can still be very useful in the modern battlefield, and are a powerful means for the weak to resist the strong.
So, from the day the war began, I thought that Israel would not be able to win, and if Israel had been victorious, it would have won a long time ago, and Hamas would not have existed to this day.
