New Israeli attack on Gaza expected soon

Robert Fisk sees signs of war prepa­ra­tions between Hezbol­lah and Israel in his last arti­cle on the Inde­pen­dent “The bor­der looks peace­ful, but Hezbol­lah and Israel are prepar­ing for war”.

But yet, there is another front pre­pares also for war, Hamas fight­ers are in the high­est degree of readi­ness in antic­i­pa­tion of an immi­nent Israeli aggres­sion at any time after 25 — Jan­u­ary, accord­ing to con­fi­den­tial infor­ma­tion obtained by the organization.

Kuwaiti news­pa­per Aljarida revealed that Hamas mil­i­tary wing received Instruc­tions to deploy and act very fast in vital areas of Gaza, in an attempt to pre­vent the Israeli occu­py­ing forces invasion.

Hamas lead­ers started to “dis­ap­pear”, impos­ing heavy secrecy on their move­ments, in antic­i­pa­tion of being tar­geted by the Israeli army, or through the spies coop­er­at­ing with the Israeli army.

The sources added that Tel Aviv is seek­ing to exploit the grow­ing U.S. con­cerns over the sit­u­a­tion in Yemen, try­ing to jus­tify its aggres­sion on Gaza as part of the war on terror.
