Israeli vote debate on Hamas defeat
The article addresses the escalation of Israeli political and military tensions following the cessation of military operations in the Gaza Strip against Hamas. Statements vary regarding the status of the movement and the possibility of returning to conflict. The Israeli Chief of Staff declared that Hamas has been defeated, while intelligence sources consider that the organization still poses a threat and is seeking to regain control over the sector. Defense Minister Yisrael Katz affirmed that the army is prepared to launch another campaign to completely eradicate Hamas, with hints of continuing to attack the plan to evacuate Gaza residents, which his political opponents accused of retreating from. On the military front, assessments have diverged regarding the balance of power, with Zamer asserting that Israel has destroyed most tunnels and drained Hamas's weapons stocks, while experts believe the movement still seeks to regain control, keeping the possibility of returning to war open. Politically, election campaigns are focused on internal and external threats, with an escalation of racist rhetoric against Arabs and calls for the demolition of Arab homes, while some election candidates face accusations of opposing the policies of the current government.
