Military Analysis – Long Gaza Battles Spread into West Bank

Military expert Major-General Fayez Al-Duwairi said the military operations in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, are still in the first phase of the war. He noted also the West Bank now also needs a ‘joint operations room’ for the resistance according to Jo24.net.

Al-Duwairi confirmed – in a military analysis on Al-Jazeera – the videos shown by the resistance from Rafah reflect the ferocity of the confrontations. They confirm that all of of the Palestinian factions are quickly adapting to the reality on the ground.

He said this adaptation is reflected in the nature of the military operations, using  “economy of force and effort” because the time span of the battles are unknown.

But Al-Duwairi added the greatest possible losses inflicted are the ranks of the Israeli occupation soldiers.

The Major-General stressed the militarily, the field performance “confirm the resistance is still active while the occupation army continues to commit crimes against civilians.”

Regarding the current displacement in Khan Yunis, Al-Duwairi said that the Israel occupation army attached its 7th Armored Brigade to the 98th Division operating in the city, pointing out what is happening in the city is not a limited operation.

Commenting on the ambush carried out by the Palestinian resistance in the village of Al-Matula near Jenin in the West Bank, he said the operation “was a complex one, reflecting an accurate reading of what the occupation will do.”

He stressed these specific operations require the setting up of a joint operations room to develop plans centrally and implement them in a proper manner, taking into account they are incremental but under control, consistent with the possibility of a prolonged confrontation.
