IDF Prepares for Hamas Retaliation After Gaza Strikes
Senior officials in the Israel Defense Forces' Southern Command believe Hamas may attempt retaliatory operations following a recent series of targeted killings by the Israeli military in the Gaza Strip, according to i24NEWS.
These officials assess that the IDF must prepare for such a possibility, as the recent operations have significantly impacted Hamas's command structure. Notably, the strikes targeted two brigade commanders, a battalion commander, and several company commanders.
Hamas views these assassinations as crossing a red line, considering the damage to its command network to be substantial. In response, the IDF is not only focusing on offensive operations within Gaza but has also bolstered its defensive measures to thwart any potential Hamas attacks aimed at reprisal for the elimination of its leaders.
