The military expert, Major -General Fayez Al -Duwairi, said that targeting the resistance of 3 Israeli tanks east of the city of Gaza -yesterday, Wednesday, means that the resistance is still present inside the tunnels and only comes when you find a favorable opportunity to attack.
In an analysis of the military scene of the band, Al -Duwairi explained that the resistance is currently parked in the tunnels to save the Israeli fire, which depends strongly on artificial intelligence systems to follow the combatants.
On the basis of this, the fighters do not come out to carry out operations that after the information was received by the possibility of engaging at a distance not exceeding 130 meters, as Al -Duwairi says, indicating that the occupation forces are parked in the high areas to ensure protection.
Even when these forces decide to enter the inhabited areas, they start with a violent bombardment on the basis of burned terrain to prevent any operation against them, he said.
It won’t last long
Regarding the conversion of a third of the sector into a buffer zone, as the Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz said, Al -Duwairi suggested that Israeli forces can secure these short -term areas, but he said they would not be able to withdraw in the long term because it will be subject to qualitative operations that will get them to withdraw.
The military expert said that Israel withdrew from the band in the past due to resistance operations, and withdrew from the Netsarim axis during the cease-fire agreement he failed later.
The Israeli forces are located in 5 corridors, which represents 30% of the area of the sector, but will face qualitative operations if they advance in the depth of the inhabited areas.
Al -DuWAIRI believes that any foray into residential areas will provide resistance to the possibility of engaging the distance from zero, unlike the current situation which makes the damage to the limited occupation forces due to its concentration in open areas.
On Wednesday, the Al -Qassam brigades, the military wing of the Islamic resistance movement (Hamas), announced the targeting of 3 Merkava 4 tanks with “Yassin 105” shells during their incursion east of the Al -Tafah district in the previous 24 hours.
The targeting of Israeli mechanisms has experienced a significant drop since the war resumed a month ago, because Israel is based on air strikes and surrounding the band without entering inside.
