Israel cannot destroy the power of Hamas in Gaza.
According to Palestine Al-Yum, Yossi Cohen, the former head of the Zionist Intelligence Service (Mossad), emphasized: Ideal words do not always express operational or strategic realities.
He considered it unlikely that the Zionist regime could completely destroy the power of the Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip.
These words of Yossi Cohen are raised in line with the criticism of the former officials of the Zionist regime regarding the performance of the cabinet of this regime and the ineffectiveness of the military attack on the city of Rafah in the shadow of concerns about the failure of the occupying army to achieve its goals.
Meanwhile, the families of the Zionist prisoners in the Gaza Strip emphasized that the Zionist regime should choose between an attack on the city of Rafah or a prisoner exchange agreement.
They pointed to the failure of the military pressure against the Hamas movement and demanded a change in the approach of the Tel Aviv cabinet.
The families of the Zionist prisoners stated that the Zionist regime should pay the price for the release of the prisoners by ending the war in the Gaza Strip.
Israel Ziv, the former head of the operations department of the Zionist regime, had previously warned about any adventure in Rafah and said: Attacking Rafah is a dangerous adventure because Hamas has laid a strategic military and political ambush for us there.
On the other hand, Zionist analyst Amos Harel said: There is a lot of optimism about the new exchange agreement. Egypt has sent positive signals in this regard. If the opportunity is missed this time, Gantz and Eisenkot will leave.
