The Islamic Jihad wants an image of victory
In Cairo, the talks between the Egyptian intelligence and the leadership of the Islamic Jihad continue in an attempt to reach a formula for a ceasefire while Iran is trying to torpedo the negotiations.
The Islamic Jihad feels humiliated and is looking to save its prestige, it is looking for an “image of victory” in the form of harming the Israelis or fulfilling the conditions it has set for Israel.
