Through Its Prisoner Handover, Hamas Shows Strength – Expert

Military and strategic expert Nidal Abu Zeid said the scenes of the handing over of the three Israeli prisoners, Saturday, were more disciplined and organized and carried many messages that the Palestinian resistance wanted to send to the Israeli occupation as part of the superiority it achieved in the battle of image and media.

Abu Zeid added to Jordan 24 the handover took place in two locations in the north and center of the Gaza Strip, which indicates the continuing strength of leadership and control of the resistance even after Hamas announced the martyrdom of seven of the first-rank leaders of the Qassam Brigades.

He pointed out this indicated that the Palestinian resistance also succeeded in overcoming the crisis of its organizational structure as well as in replacing its leaders who were killed in Israel.

Abu Zeid pointed out the black jeep that appeared during the handover of the two prisoners in Khan Yunis is one of the occupation army vehicles the resistance seized during its military operations there. This is in addition to the scenes of weapons carried by the resistance fighters during the handover, such as the Uzi and Scorpion, which are weapons of the elite units of the Israeli occupation forces.

He explained the place of handover in Khan Younis and the background pictures of leaders Mohammed Deif, the Hamas military chief and Rafeh Salama on the platform, shows the symbolism of the city, as the birthplace of Deif and leader Salama who led the Khan Younis Brigade, and both were martyred in an operation by the Israeli occupation in Al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis.

This is in addition to the symbolism of handing over one of the prisoners who holds American citizenship in the Gaza port near the area where the American side tried to establish the sea pier but miserably failed and ended in losing millions of dollars.

Abu Zeid pointed out the resistance is still superior in the battle of the image and the media it broadcasts through scenes of handing over prisoners within messages related to the capabilities of the resistance and decoding some of the symbols of the signals through which it wants to prove its capabilities and the fact it is able to continue, whether through the diplomatic dimension and negotiations or a return to the military operational dimension.

‘Generals’ Plan’ in Gaza Maybe Stopped If Hezbollah Pressure Hikes

Military Dr. Nidal Abu Zeid said the Israel occupation is trying to displace and strangle northern Gaza with fire and prevent the entry of any aid, in an attempt to implement what is known as the “generals’ plan” that has so far failed.

He noted that the Israeli army is now trying to implement such a plan by brute military force but the resistance groups have yet succeeded to thwart this pernicious project.

Abu Zeid added to Jordan24 that the current ongoing battles in Gaza are linked to the military operations Hezbollah fighters are waging in southern Lebanon.

He pointed out the missile barrages launched by the party, Wednesday, were the largest, with 200 missiles in one day, according to Israeli sources. This is in addition to Hezbollah’s success in penetrating the early warning and reconnaissance systems in the north of the occupied territories through its “Hudhud”.

Abu Zeid confirms that Hezbollah’s operations and activities are not random, but disciplined with sequential movements in a clear plan that begins with the unconventional defense of the forefront of the battle zone supported by missile barrages and reliance on the principles of proportionality and gradualism.

Therefore he added, we see Haifa being bombed whenever the southern suburb is bombed, with a gradual increase in type, quantity and range.

Regarding the Israeli response to Iran, Abu Zeid said that the indicators are escalating as the Israeli response approaches, the latest of which is Biden’s phone call to Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Galant’s visit to the Military Intelligence Division. These are indications that the integration of the intelligence position is awaiting a green light for implementation.

The “generals’ plan” is based on besieging the northern Gaza Strip, stopping humanitarian aid, and evacuating the population with the aim of “forcing all Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip to leave and turning the north into a closed military zone.”

Military and strategic expert Dr. Nidal Abu Zeid said the Karamah Crossing operation is casting its shadow over the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, as the occupation army from now may step up its security measures.

He pointing out to the repeated statements and warnings issued by the occupation army to its so-called home front point to the fact.

Abu Zeid added to the Jordan24 news website that the West Bank may witness martyrdom operations in the coming period in response to the increase security violations committed by the Israeli occupation.

The temporary closure of the King Hussein (Allenby) Bridge, while other crossings between Israel and Jordan remain open, suggests that the primary aim of these new security measures is to isolate the occupied West Bank rather than affect Jordanians or Palestinians living in… pic.twitter.com/ruDF3NQcHX

Abu Zeid pointed out that the current calm and the decrease in the intensity of operations suggest that the occupation army is presently involved in intelligence gatherings to search for what he termed as “high-value targets.”

Regarding to what is happening in the West Bank, Abu Zeid pointed out that the Israeli occupation have already headed to the Balata camp in Nablus. He pointed out this indicates that occupation forces maybe now heading towards the center of the West Bank, then towards the southern camps and finally target Hebron.

Strategic expert Dr. Nidal Abu Zeid said the ongoing operations in the Gaza Strip indicate two opposing scenes: The first to manage the defensive battle of the resistance and the second the offensive battle of the occupation army.

But he added the first scene can be described as escalating and the second as descending.

Abu Zeid added to Jordan24 the resistance has succeeded in managing an escalating defensive battle in a more professional manner and contributed to increasing the daily losses on the part of the occupation forces.

My heart beats with excitement and pride every time I see the brave resistance fighters, who with ease, skill, and courage, bring down the occupier's tanks and soldiers. in Gaza, after six months of the massacres 💔. Their determination strong 🔥!

He explained that the resistance’s ability to adapt to the geography of the region has been great as witnessed in the battles of Tal al-Hawa and al-Zeitoun neighborhood. He noted that the mercurial movements of the resistance has confused the occupation forces after inflicting heavy losses on them.

Abu Zeid pointed out that the occupation is conducting an offensive battle in which there is a kind of confusion and hesitation, as the occupation army is unable to determine the directions of the attack and is unable to resolve the war despite the passage of 324 days of fighting.

He said this is due to the state of clear exhaustion in the Israeli combat units, as the 98th Paratroopers Division which has been fighting since the beginning of the military operation without stopping, and the 162nd Armored Division fighting in Rafah and has also fought in the north without stopping.

Media War: Israel Bombs More of Its Own Captives

August 21, 2024

Military expert Nidal Abu Zeid said the statement by the Israeli occupation forces of retrieving the bodies of captives is an ambiguous announcement that lacked clarity as conflicting reports continue regarding the method of retrieving the bodies bearing in mind they were found in the Hamad Residential City, west of Khan Yunis.

Israel falseness

Abu Zeid said the Israeli 98th Paratroopers Brigade fought in the area and withdrew from it last April. The resistance media, in a video clip, shows the falseness of what the Israeli army are saying and reinforces their view that it is Israeli warplanes that killed its own prisoners.

The military and strategic expert says it seems this happened last June based on tracking the timing of the Israeli army raids when it targeted Hamad Residential City then.

Abu Zeid pointed out the Palestinian resistance fighters and after 319 days of fighting, stripped the occupation’s concept of absolute victory that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke about four months ago.

Absolute victory, no!

He added the Israeli occupation neither achieved a tactical victory and prevented the resistance from launching attacks, nor an operational victory and withered the resistance, nor of a strategic victory by eliminating the resistance.

Abu Zeid added an intelligence war is taking place behind the scenes between the resistance and Israel with the latter making strenuous efforts to recruit agents to access any information. He pointed out it indicates the Israeli occupation exhausted its “target bank” and lost its intelligence ability to identify new targets.

Accept!

The occupation’s technical and technological intelligence is incapable of stripping the resistance of its capabilities in Information operations (IO) gathering that feed the implementations of the operations orders, which makes them operationally lost, he said.

This explains that the Israeli army is aware of this field reality and why is pushing its political leadership towards accepting the terms of the negotiations which they continue to reject, at least for the time being.

Abu Zeid also confirmed in his military analysis of the Gaza that the geographical triangle that includes Tel al-Hawa, Khan Yunis, Tel al-Sultan have become a major disturbance and it is why the Israeli army are trying to stay away from direct engagement with the resistance in these areas to avoid major losses. This explains the noticeable increase in the use of drones and aerial bombardment the strategic expert concluded according to the Khaberni news website.
