Iran opposes a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and the hostage deal, and Yahya Sinwar complies with this policy. Sinwar attributes the resignation of Ministers Gantz and Eisenkot from the government to his strategy and is convinced that the Netanyahu government will soon collapse.
The “Arnon” operation to rescue four hostages from the Nuseirat refugee camp was a significant surprise for Hamas, dealing both an operational and morale blow.
However, Hamas is attempting to downplay the success of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
President Biden’s speech on the war in the Gaza Strip focuses pressure on Israel instead of Hamas, reflecting an acceptance of Hamas’s continued rule in Gaza and a failure to address the threat posed by Hezbollah to northern settlements.
Hamas claims to view the speech positively but maintains the same conditions for a hostage release deal and ceasefire.
Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, is satisfied with the increasing internal divisions in Israeli society and the war cabinet.
The internal disputes in Israel, which are tearing the society apart and echoing the days before October 7th, are seen by Hamas as one of the significant outcomes of their brutal attack on Israel.
The prospect of the PA returning to control the Gaza Strip is not practical. The Palestinian public does not support this idea, accusing the PA of corruption and acting as an executor for the Israeli security system.
The PA has already lost security control in northern Samaria and lacks the capability to manage the Gaza Strip or confront Hamas’ military wing.
The Hamas movement employs a sophisticated negotiation technique aimed at extracting concessions from Israel, known as the Salami method.
Despite seven months of conflict, Israel has yet to achieve its war objectives. However, it must remain resolute in its efforts until Hamas’s rule is dismantled.
The occupation of the Rafah crossing by the IDF is an important step in the beginning of the realization of the war goals of overthrowing the rule of Hamas. Israel must complete the task in order to create the strategic change necessary for a new era in the Gaza Strip.
Severe tensions persist between the PA and the Biden administration, fueled by recent American vetoes in the UN Security Council and the administration’s insistence on comprehensive reforms within the PA, including granting real powers to the new government. Mahmoud Abbas adamantly maintains full and centralized control over the PA and is banking on the upcoming US presidential elections to potentially alleviate the pressure he faces.
The Hamas movement is currently orchestrating a deceitful campaign, suggesting readiness for a two-state solution and a willingness to disarm following the establishment of a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders.This campaign is crafted to garner international legitimacy for Hamas’ continued governance in the Gaza Strip, despite the fact that its fundamental ideology and commitment to Israel’s destruction remain unchanged.
Senior officials in Hamas claim that the war from several fronts against Israel has completely eroded its deterrent power. Israel must take several steps to strengthen its deterrence, this has consequences for the continued confrontation with the “axis of evil” led by Iran.
