🇵🇸❌🇮🇱 Reports of Internet outage in Gaza.

🇵🇸❌🇮🇱 About the ceasefire, we discussed earlier the characteristics of an acceptable deal for Hamas. We also mentioned that Hamas will not accept a deal without a complete stop and withdrawal.

The Americans and the Egyptians advanced thus forward a solution, they both offered to guarantee those demands in a third phase of a supposed agreement. Reportedly, that means that if a deal was ever to be signed, Gaza would have to be occupied for at least 100~ days more, but with a certain end.

However, those guarantees must come with a price, because Israel, and especially Netanyahu will not accept an end to the conflict without reaching an acceptable objective. The publicly claimed objective was the complete destruction of Hamas, but this would mean an invasion of Rafah, which both Egypt and America seem to be strongly against, making this objective quite unrealistic for now.

I, for myself, think that a deal will not be reached because if a deal was to be done in such a way, Netanyahu would be finished politically, but I do hope that he does yield to the pressure of the Americans to end the war.

All questions will be answered very soon, and they might even be answered in the next 24 hours.

📑 Three civilians were lightly injured in the Israeli attack on Al-Safri area in Baalbek, near Al-Nabi sheet village. [About two hours ago]

The troubled Israeli army in south Lebanon, who failed to foil 10 rocket and ATGM attacks decided to attack north.

The building was empty. No casualties inside.

⚠️ Something that I just noticed, the flyer states to not get close to the Eastern fence [with Israel], and the Southern fence with Egypt! Gazans are not allowed to get close to the fence with Egypt anymore.

Update: Possible rationing decision, not a rebuff of Israel

The Axios article doesn’t explicitly state that ammunition is being withheld due to frustration with Israel.

Actually, an Israeli official (cited by the Times of Israel) commented: “Even now, a continued series of defense shipments are being sent from the US to Israel. It’s possible that one shipment or another is delayed, but the flow continues and we’re not aware of a policy decision to stop it.”

Defense analyst Dan Caldwell writes that a “plausible reason” for the delay is that “the ammo is going to Ukraine instead”.

“By prioritizing Ukraine over Israel for the next shipment, the Biden administration kills two birds with one stone: First, it helps to prevent a Ukrainian collapse, [then] it can spin to its base what is really a rationing decision as ‘standing up to Netanyahu’, turning neocon lemons into progressive lemonade”, assesses the ex-COO of PayPal and Yammer founder David Sacks.

🚨 Israeli PM Netanyahu's office says the war cabinet:

“unanimously decided that Israel is continuing with the operation in Rafah to exert military pressure on Hamas in order to advance the release of our hostages and the other goals of the war.”

The statement adds that Israel will send a delegation to continue hostage talks despite that “the Hamas proposal is far from Israel's necessary requirements”. (Israeli journalist Mannie Fabian)

⚡️Netanyahu's Office Statement: "The War Cabinet unanimously decided that Israel continues its operation in Rafah in order to exert military pressure on Hamas. At the same time, even though Hamas' proposal is far from Israel's necessary requirements, Israel will send a delegation to the mediators."

— As our channel predicted earlier, the deal was not accepted. Israel thus chooses the path of escalation and destuction.
