them “All options are on the table, that too.” Speaking to Formiche.net is a senior Israeli Army officer a few hours after the attacks on 15 kilometers of the so-called Metro, the Hamas tunnel network in the north of the Gaza Strip. At the top of the list of the Israeli military are three individuals: the leader of Hamas in the Strip, Yahya Sinwar , and the leaders of the al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, Marwan Issa and Mohammed Deif . WANTED NUMBER ONE
The most dangerous
The latter, considered by Israeli intelligence to be responsible for the arms purchase program of the Palestinian terrorist group. On his body the signs of the struggle against Israel: he is blind in one eye, he was badly wounded in the spine, and partially paralyzed and now he is confined to a wheelchair.
He and Jumah Tahleh , head of the cyber apparatus killed in an Israeli raid in recent days, are responsible for the use of the new rocket, Ayyash 250. The missile takes its name from the Hamas “engineer”, Yahya Ayyash , killed by Israeli secret services in 1996. Two hundred and fifty, on the other hand, would be the kilometers that the missile would be able to cover according to what Hamas declared. THE IRANIAN FOOTPRINT Ian Williams, defense and missile systems expert from the Center for Strategic and International Studies, explained in recent days to the Washington Post that behind the ballistic capabilities deployed by Hamas in this conflict there is clearly the Iranian imprint.
Follow the money, but also the missiles, and we arrive in Tehran therefore. The senior Israeli official has no doubts: “Hamas spends the money that comes from Iran not to help the population, among which its leaders often hide. But to support its military efforts against Israel ”. Hamas is nothing more than an Iranian “proxy”. “Like Islamic Jihad, the Houthis in Yemen and certain militias in Iraq.” AND ITALY
When we talk to the senior IDF officer, Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio at the Farnesinameets his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif , who has decided to skip the Vienna stage of his European tour due to an Israeli flag placed by Sebastian Kurz on the Austrian chancellery headquarters. “It is a mistake”, explains the officer, not to include in the nuclear negotiations also “the efforts” that Tehran is making through its proxies to export the Khomeinist revolution to the region. THE AMBASSADOR’S APPEAL
In a direct message to Minister Zarif, Dror Eydar, Israeli ambassador to Italy, writes: “While you are visiting wonderful Rome, I am in Israel with my little daughters, under the fire of the terrorist attack that Hamas has unleashed on Israel, with your funding, your encouragement and your guidance ”. And again: “It is good that you know that the campaign in Gaza has gone badly for you. Israel is returning the war to your emissaries of terror, and we will restore security and peace for our citizens ”. Words similar to those uttered by the high official, who speaks of “unsuccessful efforts”. Ambassador Eydar concludes the post with a message that seems to be addressed more to Europe and Italy than to Iran: “The question is: when the West realizes that behind the elegant clothes,
It is necessary to wake up ”.
