They built an entire metro city: how Israel can defeat Hamas

Israel is conducting operations in the Gaza Strip to neutralize the Hamas military structure. However, it is likely that the IDF may launch a full-scale operation in Palestinian territory.

Former Israeli ambassador to Russia Arkady Mil-Man told Channel 24 that Israeli operations are complicated by the fact that Hamas militants are hiding in a huge underground city they have built.

This underground city stretches for hundreds of kilometers. It has bunkers, tunnels, and service rooms.

They built a large metro city. And there are approximately 30 to 40 thousand Hamas fighters there. Also with them are their families and service personnel, and all together they amount to 80-100 people, explained the former Israeli ambassador to Russia.

Israel must eliminate all this infrastructure. In particular, the large stockpile of weapons accumulated by Hamas must be destroyed. And also parachute gliders, with the help of which Palestinian militants flew over the wall separating the Gaza Strip and Israel on October 7.

In addition, Hamas has small boats with which they were planning to attack Israel by sea. They also need to be eliminated.

Israel can accomplish this task. However, this process requires quite a long time. Because the life of every IDF soldier and officer is very precious.

But the Palestinians don’t think about this; they liquidate people. And they themselves are ready to die for this extremist Islamic idea,” Mil-Man emphasized.

What price can Israel pay to defeat Hamas: watch the video

Israel and Hamas are at different poles, and in order to prevent large casualties among the Israelis, the IDF is obliged to conduct operations in the Gaza Strip slowly, accurately, with a full understanding of intelligence .

“The tactical operation has been going on for several days and there are two wounded IDF soldiers and dozens of Hamas militants have been eliminated. If this continues, this is a good result. Everyone understands that victory will come at a very high cost . But we need to make this cost, as far as we can, insignificant “, emphasized Arkady Mil-Man.

  • IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Hertz Halevi told the Israeli military on the Gaza border that they must be focused on only one thing: “victory, eliminating Hamas, defeating as many enemy commanders, as many enemy fighters, and as many enemy infrastructure.” He also added that it would be a “long process.”
  • Western media also reported that Israel has so far refrained from launching a full-scale offensive in Gaza, having heeded the US recommendation. The IDF is currently conducting limited operations in Palestinian territory. Israel has also stepped up airstrikes on the Gaza Strip.
  • Previously, the IDF said that on October 28, Israeli aircraft hit over 450 Hamas military targets throughout the Gaza Strip. In particular, military headquarters, observation posts and anti-tank firing positions of terrorists came under attack.
