The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas says Israel has come to face an “extensive front” far greater than the Gaza Strip.
“The field battle is not confined to Gaza,” Osama Hamdan, who represents the group in Lebanon, told the country’s al-Manar television network on Monday.
The enemy sees itself face to face with an extensive resistance front, he asserted.
Israel launched the war against Gaza on October 7 after a retaliatory operation by the territory’s resistance groups, during which hundreds were taken captive. Since the beginning of the war, the regime has killed more than 31,600 Gazans, most of them women, children, and adolescents.
In response, resistance movements from Lebanon, Iraq, and Yemen have been carrying out military operations against the Tel Aviv regime and its interests in the region.
‘Enemy baffled by resistance’s unwavering power’
Hamdan also noted that, despite its hugely deadly and destructive campaign, the enemy has fallen short of realizing all of its “objectives.”
He was referring to the declared goals of releasing the captives, bringing about forced displacement of Gaza’s population to neighboring Egypt, and “eliminating” Hamas.
“After 163 days, the resistance is still capable in the field battle,” Hamdan said.
