Dr. Ghassan Muhammad, who specializes in Israeli affairs, commented that the Israeli occupation, by assassinating the leader of the Hamas movement and Deputy Head of the Political Bureau, Saleh Al-Arouri, began the third phase of its war on the Gaza Strip, that is, the start of the concentrated assassination operations and targeting of resistance leaders, which had been announced previously.
Ghassan continued in his speech to Masrawy that the assassination of Al-Arouri is an Israeli message to all resistance leaders and this opens the door to the worst possibilities, believing that the resistance axis takes into account this dangerous development, as he described it, adding that what the Israeli occupation did was the practical translation of the theory of a preemptive strike. Which falls within the framework of the saying of war between wars, that is, going to a specific escalation with precise ceilings while being careful not to deteriorate into a comprehensive war.
According to the researcher on Israeli affairs, the speech of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah tomorrow will answer many questions and will clarify the course of the confrontation and all possibilities are possible, stressing that there is no doubt that the resistance in Gaza read with great interest the Israeli message, and its response to the assassination will be subject to many considerations, the most important of which is military capabilities. For the resistance after three months of war on Gaza.
Ghassan Muhammad touched on the decision to respond to the assassination, which, according to him, will be taken in coordination and consultation between the parties of the axis of resistance, meaning that there will be no unilateral decision, noting that what happened contributed to the improvement of the popularity of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which had fallen to its lowest level. Recently, he added: “I do not rule out that Netanyahu will decide to stop the war at the request of an American, as if he had achieved the image of victory he was looking for in Gaza.”
Al-Arouri and other Hamas leaders were put on the target list for many years, even when he was residing in Turkey before Erdogan agreed to go to Lebanon. Therefore, the assassination operation will not give the Israeli occupation a sense of security, nor will it affect the survival and continuation of the resistance. The evidence is that the enemy has previously Many resistance leaders were assassinated in Lebanon, Gaza, and other regions, according to a researcher on Israeli affairs.
However, according to the researcher on Syrian affairs, Ghassan Muhammad, before the enemy celebrates what he considers an achievement, he is undoubtedly thinking about the repercussions and developments that will result from this operation, and history has proven this, for when the occupation assassinated prominent leaders in the Jihad and Hamas movements, he believed at that time that he had achieved an important achievement. But he later discovered that his belief was wrong.
For their part, the Palestinian factions announced general national mourning, a comprehensive strike, and revolutionary action in all arenas and fronts, after the assassination of Saleh Al-Arouri, a prominent leader of the Palestinian resistance movement “Hamas.”
In a statement, the Palestinian factions called for a strong response to the crime of Al-Arouri’s assassination from all arenas and fronts.
The statement pointed out that the assassination of Al-Arouri is an aggression against the Arab and Islamic nation, and not just against Lebanon and Palestine.
The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas announced the assassination of Saleh Al-Arouri and two Al-Qassam leaders in Beirut, Lebanon.
