In response to the recent wave of terrorism and attacks, Israel’s political-security cabinet convened and made decisions to take action against terrorists and those who support them. It appears that the terrorist organizations in Gaza are now fearing that Israel will reactivate targeted assassinations, a policy previously employed during the “Shield and Arrow” operation.
According to officials from the terrorist organizations, leaders within Gaza and beyond, especially in Lebanon, have taken unprecedented security measures in recent hours due to these threats. The measures have been implemented out of concern for targeted assassinations on the part of Israel, as indicated by the IDF and government officials.
Sources have revealed that the top leadership of these terrorist organizations is taking Israel’s threats seriously, following the latest series of attacks. They have reportedly sent messages to their allies, stating that any aggression or assassinations by Israel will be met with a timely response, regardless of the price.
In anticipation of potential aggressions, the terrorist organizations in Gaza have evacuated their main positions and heightened their alertness and readiness to the maximum level. The Lebanese newspaper al-Akhbar, which is affiliated with Hezbollah, reported that these organizations fear a major escalation if Israel resumes targeted assassinations, warning that it could affect various arenas.
However, these organizations maintain that they will not allow Israel to alter the rules of engagement in the Gaza Strip or beyond. They argue that such a move would complicate matters due to the established equation by the Resistance Alliance and the commitments made to protect their fighters and leaders.
Hamas, one of the prominent terrorist organizations in Gaza, has vocally opposed the recent threats. The Hamas leader stated that they have informed Egypt that they will not accept these threats and are prepared to respond to any aggression. A Hamas spokesman claimed that the threats against the leadership of Hamas and the conflict in Gaza reflect the crisis in which Israel finds itself. He further emphasized that they are ready to act forcefully against any aggression aimed at the people of Gaza or other arenas.
In response to these tensions, Defense Minister Yoav Galant held a situation assessment with senior security officials at the Central Command base in Jerusalem. Following the assessment, he also met with the heads of the authorities in Judea and Samaria. During these meetings, Galant expressed his appreciation for the support given by the heads of authorities to the security forces, recognizing the crucial role it plays in the eyes of both residents and soldiers.
Yesterday’s cabinet discussion saw the Minister of National Security, Ben Gabir, calling for significant restrictions on Palestinians, including the placement of roadblocks, reinstating closures, and targeted threats. He also demanded stricter conditions for security prisoners. Defense Minister Galant acknowledged the potential danger of implementing these measures, highlighting the need to avoid friction and escalation.
Following the attack, criticism arose from members of the Knesset and ministers directed towards the security policy of the Minister of Defense and the IDF. In response, Galant criticized his critics, pointing out that thousands of fighters worked to secure the delegates in the Yosh and ensure the safety of ministers and members of the Knesset during their visits to broadcast positions.
As tensions continue to rise, the situation remains precarious in the region. The anticipation of potential targeted assassinations by Israel has led to an escalation of security measures among terrorist organizations in Gaza. The ongoing conflict highlights the delicate balance between maintaining national security and avoiding further violence.
