IDF air and ground troops are currently attacking in the Gaza Strip.

Turns out, it was a military trick to make Hamas identify where their tunnels were as Hamas responded to what they thought was an attack coming in on the ground. Which then exposed them to getting hit from the air by IDF. //

The @IDF apparently faked a ground assault on Gaza by making announcements & moving troops. This brought #Hamas troops out of their tunnels & exposed them to a heavy air attack.

• That's the IDF of old–clever & innovative
• Go Chief of Staff #AvivKochavi //

A pretty neat military trick. They then became identifiable for the fighter jets. //

The target: The Hamas ‘Metro’ tunnel system in Gaza.

The operation: 160 aircraft, tanks, artillery and infantry units along the border.

We struck 150 targets and damaged many kilometers of the Hamas ‘Metro’ network. //

Soldiers and tanks with drones equipped with night vision lay in wait for survivors as they surfaced, hitting them with aerial and ground fire. Snipers and missile units were also waiting for them on the ground as the IDF said it had carried out a ‘complex’ operation to destroy Hamas tunnels underneath Gaza City, which the military refers to as ‘the Metro’. //

8 hours ago (10 AM California time and 8 PM Israeli Time on Friday 5/14) according to the "Times of Israel" live blog "Hamas political leader Khaled Mashaal tells a Turkish news agency that the Gaza terror group is ready for a ceasefire but has not received a response from Israel."

This means Hamas is running out of rockets. If Hamas runs out of rockets before a ceasefire they can't claim victory like they always do. This is also why Biden was holding off on asking for a ceasefire because Hamas wasn't ready for one. Now watch as Biden the UN and all other nations bend to Hamas and pressure Israel into a ceasefire.

Now is not the time to stop. When they run out of rockets, it is the time to send in the ground troops and take them out once and for all. Political ramifications be damned. Cease fire now and in 5 years they will be right back at it.
