Dramatic details on October 7 assault: Hamas attack plan included raids on Dimona & Tel Aviv, says journalist Ilan Kfir via @kann_news; Hamas placed large forces on standby to execute 2nd phase of assault deep into Israel. Here are the details ⬇️
1. Hamas planned 2nd wave of deep raids on October 7, including attack on Dimona where Israel’s nuclear reactor is located; other terror squads aimed to reach Shikma prison in Ashkelon to free jailed terrorists
2. Hamas terrorists also intended to reach Tel Aviv for mass slaughter of civilians at crowded venues selected in advance; details of plan emerged after Israeli forces found maps carried by terrorists; further intel info revealing Hamas plot was collected in Gaza
3. Hamas chief Sinwar gave green light for more terrorists to move into Israel midday on October 7; but new wave of raids was blocked in Nevatim area as large forces were mobilized to southern Israel to stop any enemy advances north
4. Sinwar calculated that Hezbollah plus other Iranian proxies will enter the war if Hamas reaches Dimona & Tel Aviv; this failed to materialize as Israeli defenses pushed Hamas back, averting a massive death toll inside Israel & possibly a full-scale regional war.

Are tunnels turning into a death trap for Hamas? The vast tunnel network in Gaza was built to protect the Hamas terror army & leadership. But as Israeli forces move deeper into Gaza, Hamas is facing some problems…

>>>
Image
Problem 1: You can seal off tunnels or pour things into them: Water, cement, gas, explosives… you can send in robots... but it doesn’t work the other way around. Terrorists inside a tunnel have limited options for targeting those outside…

>>>
Problem 2: Contact with the outside world is limited. Messages are often delivered in person by messengers. Communicating & getting info about what’s happening outside can be tricky if your enemy controls the area above…

Potential missile assault on Jerusalem – a thread:

1. Likelihood of missile attacks on Jerusalem in the next war is 100%, says IDF officer in charge of protecting the capital (via @ynetalerts). Intel experts mapped potential damage, calculated expected death toll Image
2. The IDF estimates that Iran axis will target Knesset and other Israeli government buildings in Jerusalem to disrupt decision-making in wartime. Tehran will hope to create chaos & uncertainty in the city, disrupt Israeli political-military chain of command Image
3. Another key objective for Iran: Striking at the heart of Israeli identity to deliver a psychological blow to Israel’s population. Jerusalem holds tremendous religious and symbolic significance for Israelis and Jews Image

How Syrian experience screwed up Russian army:
1. #Russia used Syria battleground to prepare its troops for future wars. But turns out this was terrible preparation for the kind of war the Russians are now fighting in Ukraine
2. Russian Air Force became used to operating in almost sterile environment. No effective air defenses, no opposing Air Force, plus Syria not very large. Russian pilots would mostly take off for short flights to bomb undefended targets
3. Ukraine is a different war zone. More than 3 times larger than Syria, with some air defenses & small Air Force. Russian pilots not used to this, plus not getting great intel apparently & exposing themselves to Ukrainian fire
