Elite Hamas unit that led massacre hit as Israel prepares Gaza invasion
Secretary of State Blinken guaranteed U.S. support in Jerusalem, but asked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to avoid harming the civilian population in the retaliatory military campaign
The Israeli war machine has been set in motion toward Gaza, intent on revenge. After devastating the periphery of the Palestinian strip with wave upon wave of aerial bombardments, at dawn this Thursday the army struck the bases of Hamas’ elite military unit, the Nujba force. Members of the unit led the attack last Saturday that claimed the lives of more than 1,200 Israelis and ended with more than a hundred civilians taken hostage.
