The Palestinian militant group Hamas built a mock Israeli town in Gaza and practiced attacking in plain sight — but Israel didn’t react, Reuters reported on Sunday.
Hamas militants launched a surprise offensive on Israel on Saturday, in what has been described as the worst breach in Israel’s defenses in decades.
The attack followed a careful campaign of deception by Hamas that ensured Israel was caught off guard over the weekend, an unnamed source, with connections to the group, told Reuters.
Despite convincing Israel that they had no interest in war, Hamas militants were practicing for the offensive in plain sight by setting up a mock Israeli settlement in Gaza to train its fighters.
Ah yes, governing the open air prison, where the average age of the resident is 18, having their civilian infrastructure bombed and destroyed constantly. Why didn’t they think of self determination before? /s
Waiting patiently for your turn to get evicted while the IDF forces incursions kill and maim whomever they please including foreign journalists. Sounds like a treat
