Israel continues Gaza assassinations
Recent developments indicate that Israel has resumed escalation in its air operations against the Gaza Strip, with an increase in targeted assassinations, including efforts to eliminate Hamas leaders and civilian police officials. This marks a departure from the relatively calm period experienced earlier. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that the rules of engagement remain unchanged and that the military has political backing to confront threats, emphasizing that operations are focused on "eliminating immediate threats." This comes after the assassination of Gaza Police Director, Colonel Jamal Mahmoud Abu Kamel, whom Israel regards as a Hamas leader. Reports suggest that the policy of targeted assassinations has been reinstated to prevent attacks, despite Hamas maintaining its ceasefire commitments. The ongoing Israeli escalation, now in its third day, continues to raise questions about whether there has been a change in Gaza’s military policy—especially with Israeli statements about expanding the scope of operations beyond previous limitations imposed by international and American pressures.
