The Israeli army launched a tank raid into the Gaza Strip

The Israel Defense Forces are gradually beginning ground operations in the Gaza Strip, although it is too early to talk about a large-scale ground operation. Israeli army units took tank raid into the northern part of the Palestinian enclave.


Israeli tanks entered the Gaza Strip, fired at a number of objects, but then left the enclave. Earlier it was reported that a limited contingent of the IDF was introduced into the Gaza Strip to search for prisoners captured by Hamas. However, judging by the lack of information about the release of any of the organization's prisoners, this raid ended in vain.

Such raids without launching a large-scale invasion indicate that Israel is still hesitant to move on to a large ground military operation in Gaza.


Earlier, the Hamas movement stated that there are 35 thousand of its fighters in the enclave, and they are ready to repel the Israeli army. In addition, the Hezbollah movement in Lebanon promised to become more active. It could open a second front in the event of a full-scale IDF invasion of the Gaza Strip.


Apparently, the Israeli leadership continues to simultaneously prepare troops for a ground operation and assess the degree of risks associated with such a decision, and at the same time the likelihood of US and European support for a long-term IDF military operation in the Palestinian enclave. After all, it is clear that even without the involvement of other participants in the conflict, the operation in the Gaza Strip will not be an “easy walk” for the Israeli army. Losses are inevitable, and they may not be good for Israelis' loyalty to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

      It is worth clarifying that this was a night raid. The Nazis acted similarly during the battles in Stalingrad - suppressing the identified "supporters" before the next, larger-scale attack.

        I’m not convinced that Hamas will buy these “probing” attacks...

        No... They will patiently wait for the moment of the “point of no return”. That is, they will give the IDF the opportunity to “draw in”, with the main forces, to a depth from which it will no longer be possible to “rebound” quickly. And there, on the ground and underground, intense, “sticky” (without the possibility for the enemy to quickly withdraw forces) battles at a “dagger” distance will be imposed.

        Where the IDF will no longer have the opportunity to provide air and artillery fire support to its forces, without the risk of constantly “covering” its own with “friendly” fire... And the ability to quickly, with minimal risk, evacuate its wounded. And replenish the consumption of ammunition, fuel, water, etc...

        And in such conditions and conditions, the IDF will no longer have its technological and fire superiority... And 35 thousand, holed up in pre-arranged “holes” and ruins of buildings, will fight with 60 thousand of those who are “looking for” them, practically in the “blind” and tries to “smoke them out”...

    Still, they trampled, oh, this is not good... It’s not good for the whole world... Although, now it’s definitely clear who unleashed World War 2! And I’m not talking about ordinary Jews, who were also victims, like the Russians. This is the Jewish financial "elite", the top, fuck it to the left

    Hamas previously announced that there are 35 thousand of its fighters in the enclave.
    They scare me, no more than 5 of which there are hundreds I just know which side to hold the machine gun on.

            This will go down in local folklore, legends will be written about it, how they crushed hordes of non-humans.

    Losses are inevitable, and they may not be good for Israelis' loyalty to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
    The fact that losses are inevitable is probably already known to any child in Israel and the IDF is apparently ready for this, but so far it probably cannot calculate how this could end for the army. As for loyalty to Netanyahu, it was not at a high level, and after 07.10 it fell even lower. But this is not the reason for Israel's complete abandonment of the ground operation. The tank sortie was carried out in order to show the “allies” that they were intensively preparing for what they had been promising since 08.10.

    Strange raids with incomprehensible tasks. Then special forces, now a tank unit. It looks more like an attempt at reconnaissance in force. Search for hostages cover. What kind of hostages can you find on tanks?

      Just reconnaissance in force, probing the defenses, and identifying firing points for suppression by aircraft.

        If they had found firing points, these tanks would have remained there. So either they didn’t find it, or they didn’t really want to find it. We drove behind the fence, shot and drove off. Like - we were here

          Tanks and infantry entered.
          2-3 kilometers deep.
          Reconnaissance in force and combat rallying of infantry and tank crews.

    I think the raid was carried out during the process of combat coordination and it had a combat training mission. Considering the call for reservists, they need to be retrained and undergo combat coordination, which is what is happening. This requires at least 3 months. So the Jews are trying to speed things up by carrying out such raids. For comparison. Ours prepared the Syrians to storm Aleppo for about 9 months.

    Israel has not yet decided to move on to a large ground military operation in Gaza.
    They are waiting for the United States to deploy air defense systems at its bases in the Persian Gulf countries.
    A limited IDF contingent was introduced into the Gaza Strip to search for prisoners captured by Hamas.
    This is for an excuse.

    The main issue for Israel is not losses, although there will be losses. The question is that Hamas cannot be destroyed.
    If they occupy the northern part of Gaza, they will move to the southern part. If all of Gaza is occupied, some of the fighters will flee to neighboring countries, and the rest will dissolve among the population.
    The occupation will end someday and everything will repeat from the beginning.

      Residents who support Hamas will of course remain.
      But the structure and infrastructure of the organization must be destroyed.
      As was the case with the Islamic State. Its remnants remain in Iraq and Syria.
      He also has followers in Europe and the Middle East (like Hamas and Islamic Jihad).
      But these remnants are harmless. Bye.

    In general, combat coordination and interaction between units takes place in the rear before reaching the front. That's how it is. And what could it be training- combat mission when entering enemy territory? Only combat, but not training at all.

    And there won’t even be any engineering reconnaissance, mine trawls and various DIMs at all?! Somehow it seems to me that we are on the verge of a grandiose trick. An army of unafraid optimists, as always, in their own style. They lined up beautifully in a column, they rode beautifully and comfortably. The tractor is ahead. Well, okay, it’s clear that it’s difficult to bring fpv updates there, but Hamas has TMok there like dung. I don’t want to fill it up, I don’t even need a shovel.

    Oh, a hero! In a host of long years
    I had enough time to think;
    Do not deny me a small request
    Give advice to the people:
    “Until the Russian gets into it,
    That the enemy is not a king to him, not a master,
    Not a thief or an aristocrat
    Not a foreign trustee,
    Not a smoky city, not a village
    A Zionist mug.
    Until he takes it
    Both in words and in deeds,
    Languish mother Russia
    In the Jewish shackles! ..

    Yes, this is not some kind of non-raid, and certainly not an entrance for a ground operation. Ordinary reconnaissance in force, judging by the video (if it is complete), was successfully failed and did not bring results. In Israel, the military themselves are already “hurrying” their political leaders to make a decision. The military “burn out” action is needed, otherwise the compressed spring will simply burst without performing an action.
