After a day of incendiary balloons, IDF hits Hamas targets in Gaza again
 Incendiary balloon launches continue, as Gaza restrictions tightened [Jpost] Terrorists in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... Strip continued to launch incendiary and explosive balloons, as Israel reportedly tightened trade restrictions on the Strip. At least 28 fires were sparked by incendiary balloons on Sunday. A power outage was reported in Miflasim and Nir Am in the Gaza envelope on Sunday after an incendiary balloon hit an electrical pole in the area. A backup generator provided power to the two kibbutzim until the electrical line was repaired. Paleostinian media reported on Sunday that Israel had halted the entry of all goods and materials, except for food and medicine, through the Kerem Shalom Crossing. The crossing was closed to fuel and building material imports about 13 days ago. Israeli naval vessels prevented Gaza fisherman from leaving ports along the coast of the Gaza Strip as well, as the fishing zone off the coast remains closed. Video from the Strip showed Israeli vessels relatively close to the coast. Warning shots were fired at fisherman who attempted to exit the ports, according to Paleostinian reports. Senior Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede, official Mushir al-Masri warned that "Gaza is going to explode if Israel does not commit itself to breaking the siege on the Gaza Strip." al-Masri added that mediation efforts are ongoing to stop the deteriorating situation in the Strip. The Hamas official warned that the terrorist group is "not afraid" of Israeli threats and that "there is nothing to lose in the face of the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip. We are going to the maximum extent." Egypt, Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... and the United Nations ...boodling on the grand scale... continued efforts to reach a de-escalation agreement between Israel and Gaza, as both sides continued to refuse to budge. The Qatari envoy to the Gaza Strip Mohammed al-Emadi is expected to visit the Strip on Tuesday, according to Paleostinian reports. While the terrorist groups in Gaza are demanding that the trade and fishing restrictions be lifted before balloon launches are halted, among other demands, Israel has demanded that the balloon launches be halted before restrictions are lifted. Israel stops importing vehicles into Gaza Strip over incendiary balloons [Jpost] Israel has stopped importing vehicles into the Gazoo Strip due to the continued launch of incendiary balloons into Israel, according to Ynet. This decision came following the continued launch of explosive balloons from the Gaza Strip these last weeks that caused a multitude of fires on Sunday alone. IDF strikes Hamas targets in Gaza after explosives, balloons spark 28 fires [IsraelTimes] IDF hits military posts, underground infrastructure after 2 suspected explosive devices were found in southern Israel, balloons spark fires. Israeli warplanes, tanks and drones attacked Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", targets in the Gazoo Strip before dawn on Monday in response to repeated arson balloon attacks launched into Israel, the army said. The Israel Defense Forces said it attacked "military posts and underground infrastructure of the Hamas terror group in southern Gaza." It said the strikes came in response to the launching of explosive-laden and arson balloons into Israel on Sunday. Two suspected bombs were found Sunday in southern Israel after apparently being flown into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip, as balloon attacks continued throughout the day, according to officials from the Eshkol Regional Council. "One device was found next to a playground and a second was found in a tree. In both cases, a police sapper was called. No damage or injuries were caused," an Eshkol spokesperson said. Hamas is under immense international pressure — from Qatar, Egypt and UN envoy Nickolay Mladenov — to halt its attacks, alongside pressure from the Gazook public which is getting only 3-4 hours of electricity per day after becoming used to more than three times that amount, after Israel ended fuel imports in response to the violence. But analysts say Hamas believes Israel is not interested in a round of violence at this time, leading the group to toughen its demands. Posted by: trailing wife 2020-08-24 |
