Impact of Resistance Ambushes on Gaza War Dynamics; Exposing Tactical Gaps in Zionist Enemy Forces
Arab and Regional Affairs Experts Analyze the Messages and Impacts of Recent Qassam Brigades Operations on the Zionist Regime’s Army and Israeli Society
According to a report by the English section of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr News Agency and Al jazeera, the Islamic Resistance in Palestine has launched strategic operations against the Zionist regime’s military forces one month after Israel resumed its attacks on the Gaza Strip, inflicting losses and casualties on Israeli army personnel. Along with damaging the army and demoralizing its troops, these actions have disproven claims about the supposed end of Palestinian resistance forces’ combat capabilities.
Fayez al-Duwairi, a military and strategic affairs analyst for the region, stated in an interview with Al Jazeera that the ambushes carried out by the Qassam Brigades over the past 96 hours—comprising seven operations—were unprecedented in approach, demonstrating tactical advancements by these forces.He added that most of these operations took place in buffer zones controlled by the Zionist regime’s army, highlighting the significance of tunnels and the high operational capability of Qassam fighters in operating behind enemy lines.
The military expert emphasized that the resistance’s silence over the past month should not be interpreted as a retreat. Rather,it was a result of tactical shifts within the Zionist regime’s army following the appointment of Yoav Gallant as its new chief of staff,who prioritized air force operations while considerably reducing the role of ground forces.
Al-Duwairi noted that during this period, the resistance had no possibility to carry out operations but has now repositioned itself to exploit any tactical gaps in the Zionist enemy’s strategy.
Al-Duwairi asserted that the resistance remains capable of executing surprise and painful operations against the Zionist regime, especially—It can focus on deep strikes that have important political and psychological impacts on Israeli society.
He added that 75% of the resistance’s tunnel network remains operational, providing Hamas’ Qassam Brigades with considerable maneuverability to plan and execute surprise operations.
The Message of the Resistance’s Ambushes
Al-Dawiri believes that the types of weapons used in these ambushes reflect tactical advancements by the resistance. Yasin-105 rockets were deployed in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood ambush to target armored personnel carriers, while an RPG was used in Beit Hanoun to strike a non-armored vehicle.
wassim Afifeh, a political writer and analyst, described several recent operations by resistance forces as carrying both political and military messages during highly sensitive circumstances. He emphasized that after months of war, bloodshed, and severe blockade, Palestinian resistance carried out these bold operations deep within occupied territory.The Zionist enemy has carried out actions that expose the hollowness of Tel Aviv’s claims about eliminating Palestinian resistance, once again scrambling the negotiation table’s documents.Afifa stated that the Beit Hanoun operation, in particular, marked a turning point in Hamas’ ambushes, as resistance fighters emerged from tunnels just 300 meters from the buffer zone and executed a precise ambush. This resulted in the killing of one Zionist soldier and injuries to several others, while all resistance members withdrew safely.
She also highlighted the political dimensions of these ambushes, emphasizing that field operations by the resistance serve its leadership’s political agenda. This operation is being leveraged as pressure on the Zionist regime’s cabinet to accept Hamas’ recent proposal for a comprehensive ceasefire and full withdrawal of forces from Gaza.
Dr. Mohannad Mustafa, another analyst specializing in internal affairs of the Zionist regime, believes that recent Palestinian operations…These internal divisions within the Zionist society have intensified and exposed the falsehood of claims made by the military leaders of the Zionist regime, even regarding the possibility of liberating Palestine through military means. Moreover, without significant progress, they face continued setbacks from the Israeli army’s failures.
This contradiction highlights a declining trust in the military command of the Zionist regime—especially under conditions where even staunch supporters of Israel’s army are questioning its ability to achieve political objectives within Zionist society.
The analyst explained that increasing political pressures on zionist society lead to greater ideological instability and operational unpredictability among its general public. However, America remains the most influential factor in this era. Yet, Zionist society may witness unprecedented civil unrest and systemic transformations in future stages.
He emphasized that Israel’s internal divisions could potentially force an end to its war efforts by weakening them significantly.No essential changes on the ground or shifts in America’s positions can lead to an end to the war under conditions that do not benefit Israel.
