Israeli Officer: Hamas Monitors Us Around Clock
An Israeli reserve officer said that the Israeli army has a "prevailing assumption" that the Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas" collects intelligence on army officers and soldiers and their movements around the clock.
The Israeli Walla News website quoted a reserve officer as saying, "Hamas uses remote surveillance, binoculars, and drones to gather information."
The reserve officer on the Gaza Front added, "Hamas' use of drones was present at the beginning of the war (of aggression), then disappeared and has recently returned." He confirmed, "Hamas has returned to using drones; this means it feels comfortable enough."
This week, the Israeli army acknowledged the death of one soldier and the serious injury of another in battles in Shuja'iyya, north of the Gaza Strip, on June 4.

Gulf countries welcome French recognition of Palestinian state
Saudi Arabia and fellow Gulf Arab states on Friday welcomed president Emmanuel Macron's announcement that France would recognise the state of Palestine, and urged other countries to follow suit. Other EU members have recognised Palestine since the Gaza war erupted in October 2023 but France is the first member of the G7 group of major advanced economies to do so. The Saudi foreign ministry said 'the kingdom commends this historic decision, which reaffirms the international community's consensus on the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and to establish their independent state'. It called on other countries 'that have not yet recognised the State of Palestine to take similar positive steps'. Macron said on Thursday that France would formally recognise a Palestinian state during a UN meeting in September. A ministerial-level meeting co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia to discuss a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is planned for later this month. Qatar, a key mediator in indirect negotiations between Israel and Hamas on ending the Gaza war, also welcomed the French move. Its foreign ministry said the move 'constitutes significant support for the legitimate rights of the brotherly Palestinian people' and 'contributes to advancing prospects for achieving a just and comprehensive peace in the region'. The Kuwaiti foreign ministry said it 'commended this significant step'. The six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) – which also includes the UAE and Bahrain, both of which have ties with Israel – also praised the move.

UAE welcomes Emmanuel Macron's move to recognise Palestine as a state
Sheikh Abdullah welcomes Emmanuel Macron's move to recognise Palestine as a stateSheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, has welcomed the declaration by French President Emmanuel Macron that France will recognise Palestine as a state. Mr Macron announced on Thursday night that France would join Norway, Ireland and Spain as countries in Europe that have recognised Palestine. His comments came as anger mounted over the death toll in Gaza and the growing number of people starving in the enclave. Sheikh Abdullah said the UAE appreciated "this important decision" by Mr Macron, state news agency Wam reported on Friday evening. The move by the French President came at "a pivotal moment that requires the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and work collectively to activate the political process and end the Palestinian-Israeli conflict", added Sheikh Abdullah. The French stance will contribute to enhancing security and stability in the region, while supporting the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, he said. Sheikh Abdullah reiterated the UAE's commitment to work with regional and international partners to find a just solution to the conflict in Gaza, ensuring a stable and prosperous future for the region in the process. Mr Macron said he would formalise the decision at the UN General Assembly in September. "The urgent priority today is to end the war in Gaza and rescue the civilian population," Mr Macron wrote. "We must finally build the state of Palestine, ensure its viability and enable it, by accepting its demilitarisation and fully recognising Israel, to contribute to the security of all in the Middle East." The decision to recognise Palestine as a state was also welcomed by Mohammed Ahmed Al Yammahi, President of the Arab Parliament. This move embodies a commitment to the values of justice, freedom and human dignity, and represents support for the Palestinian people's legitimate right to establish an independent and sovereign state, Wam reported Mr Al Yammahi as saying. The stance, added Mr Al Yammahi, strengthens diplomatic and parliamentary efforts aimed at achieving a just, comprehensive and lasting peace in the Middle East based on the two-state solution.

Al-Qassam bombards enemy command, control site in Morag axis
Gaza – Saba: Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades announced on Thursday that it had bombarded an Israeli enemy command and control site in the Morag axis in the southern Gaza Strip. In a statement, al-Qassam said: "Yesterday evening, Wednesday, we bombed a command and control site of the Israeli enemy in the Morag axis with a short-range 114mm Rajum missile system." This comes in the context of the Palestinian resistance factions' response to the genocide committed by the Israeli enemy against the people of the Gaza Strip, with American support, since October 7, 2023. This crime includes killing, starvation, destruction, and displacement, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to halt it. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
