Israeli Air Force planes struck 21 Hamas military targets in the Gaza Strip

This afternoon, Israeli Air Force aircraft attacked from the air 21 military installations of the Palestinian Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli press reports this with reference to the military command.

The Israel Defense Forces launched Operation Iron Swords after Palestinian attacks on the country's border areas. The Israeli leadership promised an extremely tough response to the actions of Palestinian troops on Israeli territory.

So far, it is known that Israeli Air Force planes attacked 17 different military installations and 4 Hamas command posts in the Gaza Strip. But it should be noted that the Palestinian formations are not lagging behind. Since the morning, Palestinian troops have fired several thousand rockets across Israeli territory, according to various sources - from 2,2 thousand to 5 thousand.

Meanwhile, in East Jerusalem, the local Palestinian population began rioting, clashing with Israeli security forces. The command of the Israel Defense Forces announced the mobilization of several tens of thousands of reservists. At the same time, there were reports that the Israeli leadership entered into negotiations with senior Palestinian officials regarding the fate of Israeli military personnel and civilians captured by members of Palestinian organizations.

According to some reports, Hamas members captured Israeli army Major General Nimrod Aloni, who previously served as commander of the Gaza division and directly commanded actions against Palestinian forces in the region, in his own house near the border. The Israeli authorities have not yet confirmed information about the general’s capture at the time of writing.

If other countries are not involved, and if the Americans are involved, then I don’t think it will come to a big war. Israel will crush the Palestinians one at a time, lightly.

And those who are behind them?
But there will be cooler guys there than the Palestinians.

Are the Iranians cooler?
More abruptly, half a carasik.
They only know how to puff out their cheeks, how many Iranians were purged in Syria?
Tens of thousands, so much so that they stopped sending their IRGC to Syria.
Stopped.
But before, a few years ago, there were so many cries about the IRGC in Syria.
And it's over.

He fought AT THE SAME TIME against Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq (and volunteers) - and it turned out well, he BREAKED EVERYONE.

[Essex62]

Where does it start from? This isn't the first time and it certainly won't be the last. The Hamas Jews will roll it into a pancake. Then the peacekeepers will harness up, and everything will return to normal. Palestine, like an awl in the Jewish seat, will remain for a long time.

[Argon]

And why all? Can you give me a map of Israel, for example, from 1945?

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

Exactly, everything needs to be returned to its 1945 condition! So that the British Empire covers half the world (including Israel/Palestine) and the French Empire for another eighth. And the USSR is alive (and it has a sovereign Karelo-Finnish SSR with the right to secede), and the People's Republic of China for all of China, and 4 allied occupation zones instead of Germany, and the Dutch East Indies instead of Indonesia, and Alaska is not yet a state, but the Philippines - almost a staff.

As long as Israel has US support. Let me remind you that Israel is a small country, it has zero resources of its own, everything is imported, and there are no friends around, literally at all. I will say more, all of Israel’s neighbors love him so much that they cannot eat, they have fought with him more than once and openly crave revenge.

It won't be easy. The war will be brutal. The Islamists have up to 60 thousand soldiers there.

[Essex62]

60 thousand thugs ready to fight each other for a bone, without serious weapons. Aron, you don’t believe in your
a quick win? With such technical and quality superiority.

[And Us Rat]

Quote: Essex62

a quick win?

It won't be fast for two reasons:
1. The IDF protects the soldiers, so there will be no thoughtless meat assaults to “crush them with the masses.”
2. Hamas hides behind its civilians as a human shield, “quickly” in such a situation, this is napalm, with hundreds of thousands of civilian corpses in Gaza.

[Essex62]

Water pipes are constantly flying towards you, this, of course, without napalm, on the head of the peaceful people, cannot be stopped. But we are talking about an attack by Hamas directly on Israeli territory. The IDF, technically superior in strength, is capable of defeating them. That’s what I’m talking about.

[parabyd]

Aron, now is the time for your own question. What kind of forces and resources do you think Israel needs to allocate for success in the operation? And what are your forecasts for the timing?

They wrote somewhere that Iran needs 2 weeks to enrich uranium to the required level and begin testing nuclear weapons. Now they might try to sneak in while Israel is busy

[And Us Rat]

Quote from: parabyd

What kind of forces and resources does Israel need to allocate for success in the operation?

20-25% of the total number of aircraft after mobilization.

Quote from: parabyd

And what are your forecasts for the timing?

From 30 to 90 days. We will have to look under every mined stone in Gaza in order to eliminate all the Hamas.

[Argon]

It’s infuriating that Palestinians are fighting with the military, and Jews are fighting with civilians. This is such a tactic and does not teach anything. People become angrier when their children are killed! What would you do if, for example, you were in the place of the Palestinians? When they hit your houses with missiles, and you have nothing to respond to.

How two-faced you are.... Misunderstanding....
That is, when a 15-year-old Arab, with a machine gun at the ready, in an ambush, kills a military man, in your eyes this is a “war with the military”...
And when he, this 15-year-old Arab with a machine gun, is shot with return fire, then in your speeches they are “killing Arab children”...
Ugh, damn it ...
How two-faced you are.
It's disgusting to know that people like you exist...

I completely agree and it’s extremely annoying that he’s not the only one here...

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

Now they are demonstrating how they are fighting with the military, and not with civilians. And about the lack of rockets among the Palestinians, who fired 5000 of them in a day, is completely ridiculous.

Those. 5000 missiles “on whomever Allah sends”, when people are being slaughtered in their homes - is it fighting against the military, and when they receive a REPLY on control centers and launch positions - is this against civilians?

My sincere condolences to all of you and wish you peace...

[Most polite]

As I understand it, where the rocket fell, there were Hamas militants... well, if they demolished a high-rise building (about 10 of them have already been demolished), then this is definitely a headquarters or a decision-making center!!!
As if the military leaders of Hamas are idiots and will hole up in skyscrapers...

[Lech from Android.]

Interesting events began to occur all over the world...there is a widespread imbalance in the US world order...so Israel is drawn into this fight.

[parabyd]

Yes, now the states may have to focus on the Middle East, otherwise it will completely creep away from them.

If Taiwan or Korea breaks out now, then someone may have to break in the splits

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

For now, it’s enough for the States not to interfere with Israel (and to turn the lights on progressive Europeans a little).

The Israeli leadership promised an extremely tough response to the actions of Palestinian troops on Israeli territory.

And this will be received with a bang by the “civilized world”. Do not doubt.

[Sergej1972]

Don't know. The sympathies of the EU and its governing structures have always been more on the side of the Palestinians.

[Gekki66]

It seems to me that we are on the eve of a big event! (c) Poapndopulo
And according to the KMK subject, yesterday’s attack on the Military Academy in Syria and today’s attack by Hamas are connected.

[Thrifty]

Bombing Palestinian targets could be a problem for the Israeli military if the Palestinians station at least some of the Israeli troops they captured at such facilities.

It won't stop the blows. There is a limit to tolerance for preserving the lives of hostages; if there is no choice, then blows will be struck.

"The soul rushed over the bumps." Now each side needs to try to inflict as much damage as possible on the enemy and as quickly as possible before the newly minted international “peacekeepers” intervene and try to freeze the conflict. And there will be such people.

Will not work.

It may not work out at the initial stage, but there will be people who want it. Your ally the United States will do its part. How the Jewish lobby in the United States and Europe will react to this is another matter.

Aron, you are the closest to the events...how you see everything there with your own eyes...tell us.

[A17ttt]

The territory of the Gaza Strip compared to the territory of Israel is several times smaller.
It is enough for the population of the Gaza Strip (all) to cross the Israeli border - and all actions from the air will have to be done at random.
Go ahead and guess where yours are citizens and where they are not.

[Bulrumeb]

Regardless of what is happening, the much-praised Merkava from grenades dropped from drones burns no worse than any other. The cart is already full of videos.

[cmax]

For the Palestinians, this war is......a one-way ticket. There are already many victims, especially on the part of the Israelis. Just sometime in October 1973 (the beginning), the end is known

[kill the fascist]

Are military installations residential buildings with families of active/known Hamas members? According to the Jewish army, pretty girls in military uniform look good in photos on Facebook and Instagram, but they are not captured by Hamas. Women have no place in combat units.

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

Cute girls, cute boys, handsome old men, funny charming fat men and any other groups of the population, of course, look better on Instagram (banned in the Russian Federation) than in captivity. But if the enemy complies with the norms of a civilized attitude towards prisoners, then they look normal in captivity. And if he doesn’t comply, then brutal bearded men in such captivity look very bad.

During the Second World War, by the way, the Germans treated our captured Red Army women very poorly, often including them in the category of “Jews and commissars.” This did not mean that there was no place for women, it meant that there were brutes against us.

[Essex62]

Actually, these girls fight seriously, in tanks and airplanes. Regardless of the attitude towards Zionism, the Motherland is being defended.

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

About tanks, one Israeli retiree posted reports on LiveJournal about their trial program for using women in tank crews. It was an experiment that didn't end very well. They coped with duties worse than male crews due to a lack of brute physical strength. The ladies couldn't cope with the maintenance of the chassis - the tracks and rollers weigh a lot. For the same reason, they don’t like to hire dead men as tankers.

[dump22]

One thing is not clear.
Hamas stockpiled a bunch of rockets in advance, planned and prepared the raid, and probably trained fighters in advance.
And where did Jewish intelligence look? How did you completely miss the preparation for such a major operation?

[Soul of Russia87]

The Jews NEEDED this attack, now they have carte blanche to bomb Gaza to the ground.
