The IDF spokesperson early afternoon on Tuesday said that in recent hours, fierce battles between IDF forces and Hamas terrorists have been taking place deep in the Gaza Strip.
“The IDF forces attacked an outpost of Hamas terrorists in the north of the Gaza Strip. The forces eliminated dozens of terrorists, anti-tank launching cells and positions, observation posts and seized many weapons, including explosives and weapons.”
The IDF published a video of the battles, which were carried out by forces on foot, in tanks, and in fighter jets from the air:
Earlier this morning, the IDF published a recording of the commander of the Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, telling troops that we “are launching an attack on Hamas and terror organizations in the Gaza Strip. Our goal is one, victory.”
“We will fight in the alleys, we will fight in the tunnels, we will fight wherever necessary. We will strike the despicable enemy in front of us. My brothers – the residents of Be’eri, Sderot, Nir Oz, Kfar Aza, and the yishuvim of the western Negev and all of Am Yisrael are with you. Everyone is looking at us now. Like me – they’re also relying on you and believe in you. You’re the generation of victory.”
“Move toward your missions. Strike the enemy.”

Go and be successful.
I wonder how they protect themselves, walking near buildings that can hold snipers in every window, ch”v.

Kochi V’otzem Yudi! no mention of one holy word! HASHEM
mindyourownbusiness
Nebech, you’re right! We are the ones that say that Hashem is the Shomer and wins wars. I’ sure the zechus of this will help the winning
BEFORE you send troops in, LEVEL all the surrounding buildings so that they can’t be attacked! Our job is to PROTECT the lives of our fellow Jews — not worry about the accusations of anti-semites.
Hashem is showing us something important. Right now our enemies are hiding underground. They say they have enough supplies to stay there for months. Our lesson is here. The yetzer hora is deadly. he is in hiding right now deep within us. We have to find a way to destroy him forever. May Hakodosh Boruch Hu give us all the strength to win all our battles b’simcha and b’sholom!
They believe in themselves only. Hashem is a foreign entity unfortunately.
Besides the symbolism of Jewish nature for the world to see and get “inspired” like writing in a sefer torah, tzitzis etc, G d doesnt come into their lives.
Its totally כוחי ועוצם ידי.
And thats what brought about the horror of it all.
