WhatsappDespite President Trump’s insistence that a deal is close, Hamas has announced that 60 Day ceasefire proposal put on the table that it already rejected they are planning on rejecting again.
Given this fact, the IDF continues to push forward in Gaza with its goal of capturing and holding 75 percent of the strip, which by all estimates it is very close to doing. After that, if there is no deal then Israel will have to decide whether it wants to move forward to full military control of Gaza.
The IDF has pushed forward in Khan Yunis and now into Gaza City. Mass evacuations have moved Gazans out of these areas and into the Muwasi area along the coast in the south.
The IDF released this statement about the air force’s contribution to the ongoing offensive:
“Over the past 24 hours, the Air Force has attacked more than 140 terrorist targets throughout the Gaza Strip in order to assist the maneuvering forces. Among the targets attacked were terrorists, military structures, anti-tank launch sites that posed a threat to the forces, weapons depots, and other terrorist infrastructure.”
So will Israel move towards full military rule in Gaza Strip? If the rumors that Saudi Arabia wants Israel to finis off Hamas before normalization, then the answer is yes. After all, the real war going on is between the Saudi led axis made up of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, and Israel verses Qatar, Turkey and the Muslim Brotherhood, which Hamas is part of.
Saudi Arabia may be satisfied with trump’s attacks on Iran, but the kingdom knows their real enemies now are Turkeya nd Qatar.
