Israeli Army (IDF) is ready to use "Sponge Bombs" in Hamas tunnels. Various types of tunnels are used by Hamas. Some stretch for hundreds of kilometers and descending up to 80 meters deep beneath the 360-square-kilometer coastal strip and its surrounding borders. Israel may use a new weapon called “sponge bombs” to seal and block off Hamas tunnels. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has been testing the "sponge bombs", which contain no explosives but are used to seal tunnel entrances. “Sponge bombs” are bombs that create a sudden explosion of foam that expands rapidly and then hardens. Reportedly, these devices are housed in a protective plastic casing with a metal barrier separating two separate liquids. During exercises in a simulated tunnel system near the Gaza border in 2021, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) were observed utilizing these devices. One of the elite units responsible for operations underground is Yahalom, a specialized commando group from Israel Combat Engineering Corps, often referred to as the "weasels." Their expertise lies in the detection, clearance, and demolition of tunnels. The device would leave Hamas fighters with no escape and allow Israeli commandos to secure safe routes to travel while searching for hostages.

Rafah crossing opens to allow a limited exit of foreign nationals and wounded. The opening of the crossing was negotiated between Egypt, Israel and Hamas, in coordination with the US, after the intervention of Qatar, which mediated in the talks. There is no indication for how long the Rafah crossing would remain open. The border authority in Gaza added that Egypt had agreed to let in 81 of the most badly wounded on Wednesday, seeking evacuation. A security source told Reuters up to 500 people may be able to leave.

Douglas MacGregor interview: Situation in Ukraine and Israel. Erdogan's role in antisemitic riot in Dagestan. Is it true that Putin’s health deteriorating? Will Israeli approach in Gaza work? Situation in Europe. Is Israel-Hamas war more dangerous for the World stability than Russia-Ukraine war? Hamas began firing thousands of rockets on Saturday morning, striking targets as far away as Tel Aviv and the outskirts of Jerusalem, which rarely see any direct hits because of Israel's sophisticated Iron Dome missile defense system. Backed by a barrage of rockets, Hamas militants stormed from the blockaded Gaza Strip into nearby Israeli towns The unprecedented attack, which has killed at least 1300 people in Israel, Israel's Army Radio reported Monday. At least 3000 people have been injured, the Israeli Health Ministry said earlier. More than 100 Israeli civilians, soldiers, and foreign nationals have also been taken hostage by Hamas. Israel on Sunday formally declared war on Hamas. Douglas Abbott Macgregor (born January 4, 1947) is a retired U.S. Army colonel and government official, and an author, consultant, and television commentator. He played a significant role on the battlefield in the Gulf War and the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. His 1997 book Breaking the Phalanx established him as an influential if unconventional theorist of military strategy. His thinking contributed to the US strategy in its 2003 invasion of Iraq. On November 11, 2020, a Pentagon spokesperson announced that Macgregor had been hired to serve as Senior Advisor to the Acting Secretary of Defense, a post he held for less than three months. Macgregor was the "squadron operations officer who essentially directed the Battle of 73 Easting" during the Gulf War. Facing an Iraqi Republican Guard opponent, he led a contingent consisting of 19 tanks, 26 Bradley Fighting Vehicles and 4 M1064 mortar carriers through the sandstorm to the 73 Easting at roughly 16:18 hours on 26 February 1991 destroyed almost 70 Iraqi armored vehicles with no U.S. casualties in a 23-minute span of the battle. He was at the front of the formation in the center with Eagle Troop on the right and Ghost Troop on the left. Macgregor designated Eagle Troop the main attack and positioned himself to the left of Eagle Troop. Eagle Troop Scouts subsequently followed Macgregor's tank through a minefield during which his crew destroyed two enemy tanks. As Macgregor was towards the front of the battle involved in shooting, he didn't "request artillery support or report events to superiors until the battle was virtually over, according to one of his superior officers". The risks he undertook "could have been criticized had the fight turned ugly". At a November 1993 exercise at the Army's National Training Center (NTC) at Fort Irwin, Lt. Col. Macgregor's unit vastly outperformed its peers against the "Opposition Force (OPFOR)". The series of five battles usually end in four losses and a draw for the visiting units; his unit won three, lost one, and drew one. Macgregor's unit dispersed widely, took unconventional risks, and anticipated enemy movements. Macgregor was "one of the Army's leading thinkers on innovation", according to journalist Thomas E. Ricks. He "became prominent inside the Army" when his book Breaking the Phalanx was published in 1997, arguing for radical reforms. Breaking the Phalanx was rare in that an active duty military author was challenging the status quo with detailed reform proposals for the reorganization of U.S. Army ground forces. The head of the Army, United States General Dennis Reimer, wanted to reform the Army and effectively endorsed Breaking the Phalanx and passed copies out to generals; however, reforming the U.S. Army according to the book met resistance from the Army's de facto "board of directors" — the other four-star Army generals — and Reimer did not press the issue. Breaking the Phalanx advocated that "the Army restructure itself into modularly organized, highly mobile, self-contained, combined arms teams that look extraordinarily like the Marine Corps' Air Ground Task Forces". Many of Macgregor's colleagues thought his unconventional thinking may have harmed his chances for promotion. While an Army NTC official called him "the best war fighter the Army has got," colleagues of Macgregor were concerned that "the Army is showing it prefers generals who are good at bureaucratic gamesmanship to ones who can think innovatively on the battlefield." #israel #douglasmacgregor #ukrainewar

Can Arabs serve in IDF? Golani Brigade-Best Israeli fighting brigade. The soldiers of the brigade wear a brown beret, symbolizing their connection to the ground. Their square-shaped badge bears their unit's symbol: an olive tree on a yellow background. The soldiers of the brigade wear black infantry boots. The Golani Brigade has participated in the most crucial battles in the history of the country. During the War of Independence, the brigade officially entered the IDF and took part in battles in the Jordan Valley against the armies of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq. In the Sinai Campaign in 1956, the brigade captured the Rafah area and allowed passage to the armored forces. During the Six-Day War in 1967, the brigade recorded many achievements; one of the most prominent was at the battle of Tel Faher in which the Syrian outpost at the edge of the Golan Heights was conquered. During the First Lebanon War, the brigade played a significant role in the conquest of Beaufort and in the battle for Kfar Sil, and at the end of the war were responsible for maintaining posts in the security zone. Today, the unit's recruits honor the battles of the Yom Kippur War by climbing Mount Hermon to receive the unit's badge. During the Second Intifada, the brigade led Operation Defensive Shield. The brigade also participated in the Operation "Summer Rains" in 2006. With the outbreak of the Second Lebanon War, the brigade led the battles that took place in the town of Bint Jbeil, Lebanon. #israel #golanibrigade #idf

Daniel Davis & Douglas MacGregor: Ground operation in Gaza about to begin. Possible consequences. What is the initial objective of Israel in Gaza land operation? Will Israelis do better than Russians in Chechnya? What will Hamas do? How long will this operation last? What does experience of the 1973 “Yom Kippur War” tells us? Will there be more than one front? Will Iran take part in the war? Reaction to Biden’s speech. What is the role of NATO? Does America need permanent alliances? Hamas is a designated terrorist group backed by Iran and that has governed the Gaza Strip since 2007. Hamas began firing thousands of rockets on Saturday morning, striking targets as far away as Tel Aviv and the outskirts of Jerusalem, which rarely see any direct hits because of Israel's sophisticated Iron Dome missile defense system. Backed by a barrage of rockets, Hamas militants stormed from the blockaded Gaza Strip into nearby Israeli towns The unprecedented attack, which has killed at least 1300 people in Israel, Israel's Army Radio reported Monday. At least 3000 people have been injured, the Israeli Health Ministry said earlier. More than 100 Israeli civilians, soldiers, and foreign nationals have also been taken hostage by Hamas, prompting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Israel on Sunday formally declared war on Hamas. Douglas Abbott Macgregor (born January 4, 1947) is a retired U.S. Army colonel and government official, and an author, consultant, and television commentator. He played a significant role on the battlefield in the Gulf War and the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. His 1997 book Breaking the Phalanx established him as an influential if unconventional theorist of military strategy. His thinking contributed to the US strategy in its 2003 invasion of Iraq. On November 11, 2020, a Pentagon spokesperson announced that Macgregor had been hired to serve as Senior Advisor to the Acting Secretary of Defense, a post he held for less than three months. Macgregor was the "squadron operations officer who essentially directed the Battle of 73 Easting" during the Gulf War. Facing an Iraqi Republican Guard opponent, he led a contingent consisting of 19 tanks, 26 Bradley Fighting Vehicles and 4 M1064 mortar carriers through the sandstorm to the 73 Easting at roughly 16:18 hours on 26 February 1991 destroyed almost 70 Iraqi armored vehicles with no U.S. casualties in a 23-minute span of the battle. He was at the front of the formation in the center with Eagle Troop on the right and Ghost Troop on the left. Macgregor designated Eagle Troop the main attack and positioned himself to the left of Eagle Troop. Eagle Troop Scouts subsequently followed Macgregor's tank through a minefield during which his crew destroyed two enemy tanks. As Macgregor was towards the front of the battle involved in shooting, he didn't "request artillery support or report events to superiors until the battle was virtually over, according to one of his superior officers". The risks he undertook "could have been criticized had the fight turned ugly". At a November 1993 exercise at the Army's National Training Center (NTC) at Fort Irwin, Lt. Col. Macgregor's unit vastly outperformed its peers against the "Opposition Force (OPFOR)". The series of five battles usually end in four losses and a draw for the visiting units; his unit won three, lost one, and drew one. Macgregor's unit dispersed widely, took unconventional risks, and anticipated enemy movements. Macgregor was "one of the Army's leading thinkers on innovation", according to journalist Thomas E. Ricks. He "became prominent inside the Army" when his book Breaking the Phalanx was published in 1997, arguing for radical reforms. Breaking the Phalanx was rare in that an active duty military author was challenging the status quo with detailed reform proposals for the reorganization of U.S. Army ground forces. The head of the Army, United States General Dennis Reimer, wanted to reform the Army and effectively endorsed Breaking the Phalanx and passed copies out to generals; however, reforming the U.S. Army according to the book met resistance from the Army's de facto "board of directors" — the other four-star Army generals — and Reimer did not press the issue. Breaking the Phalanx advocated that "the Army restructure itself into modularly organized, highly mobile, self-contained, combined arms teams that look extraordinarily like the Marine Corps' Air Ground Task Forces". Many of Macgregor's colleagues thought his unconventional thinking may have harmed his chances for promotion. While an Army NTC official called him "the best war fighter the Army has got," colleagues of Macgregor were concerned that "the Army is showing it prefers generals who are good at bureaucratic gamesmanship to ones who can think innovatively on the battlefield." #israel #douglasmacgregor #gaza
