Tel Aviv – Attacks from two neighboring countries roused Israel as it stepped up its counter-offensive in response to a surprise attack by Hamas that killed hundreds of people on Saturday morning. Apart from Hamas, a new port of call has been opened once morest Israel from neighboring countries like Syria and Lebanon. As the counter-offensive once morest Hamas continues, the Israeli military says it has retaliated once morest attacks from these countries.
Both countries, like Hamas, have a long history of bitter enmity with Israel. The world is watching to see if the two groups will join hands with Hamas amid the heaviest blowback and casualties Israel has faced in decades. Especially when they all have covert and overt support from Israel’s arch-enemies, Iran. At the same time, Iran maintains that it has no role in the attack even though it supports the attack carried out by Hamas.
∙ Starting with Hamas
The number of people killed in Israel has exceeded 1200 in an unexpected attack by Hamas this past Saturday morning. Hamas, which has controlled the Gaza Strip since 2007, has fired rockets and infiltrated Israel, killing so many.
Israel responded to Hamas’s provocation with widespread airstrikes. The official estimate is that 950 people have died in Palestine so far in response to Israel’s retaliation. Meanwhile, the Israeli military says it has recovered the bodies of 1,500 Hamas members. Israel’s declared war on Hamas is still ongoing.
∙ Supported by Lebanon
Lebanon’s armed group Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel in response to an attack by Hamas. The explanation is that the attack was to declare solidarity with the Palestinian people. Israel retaliated by destroying an Iranian-backed Hezbollah observation post overnight.
The most serious crisis since 2006 is ongoing on the Lebanon-Israel border. Hezbollah was formed in 1982 by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards to fight the Israeli occupation of Lebanon. Hezbollah claims that Israel cannot even imagine the extent of its arsenal.
∙ Holding Syria
While Israel is getting active with its counter-offensive once morest Hamas, the attack has reportedly started from the Syrian border. With Israel retaliating in the same coin to the provocation from Syria, the world fears that another war front is opening.
The Israeli army has announced in a statement that the army has given a sufficient response to the attack from Syria. The information given by the army is that there have been several attacks from Syria. In 1967, following six days of fighting, Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria, and the two countries came face to face.
