Rapidly escalating strikes along the Gaza-Israel border on Tuesday came to an abrupt end Wednesday morning, with a ceasefire reported. There were no reports of further attacks from either side after the ceasefire was agreed to.
This was a deescalation rarely seen in the border area, where such strikes tend to take a bit to calm down. Israeli officials were quick to note this isn’t even a formal ceasefire, just an informal arrangement made with the help of Egypt.
This is an important distinction because there are also efforts to broker a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, a formal document that would aim to bring prolonged calm to the tense border. This, however, was just a makeshift agreement on the recent escalation.
Israeli analysts suggested that the ongoing war in Syria made a quick Gaza deal particularly important to Israel, as the current far-right government considers the fighting in Syria to be a higher priority, and their immediate focus.
This gives the impression Hamas is some sort of equal fighting partner to the murderous IOF which killed and injured so many unarmed Palestinians before finally a few rockets fell harmlessly towards Israel.
Israel would bomb kids for throwing Frisbees in their lawn.
One jailless prison, but even for children? Or two no-jail prisons? One walled on one side and the other ‘walled’ on all sides?
Even UN, if i am not mistaken doesn’t know or cares not to know, let alone the three US dictatorial classes.
How about Putin? What does he know? Or Russian Church? It does love Jesus; ergo, doesn’t know or cares not to know that all Palestinians are in worse position than the Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto.
My post about the two open-air prisons held up; probably deleted?
One of the open-air [or w.o. jails] prisons walled on one side of it and the other ‘walled’ on all sides. This, plus a bit more, AW deleted.
“probably deleted?”
Nope.
