Israel Radar
On Oct 7, Hamas mobilized thousands of heavily armed fighters to invade Israel & fired over 4,000 rockets. Today, Hamas mobilized hundreds of gunmen for a TV production. Zero rockets fired, zero actual military action. After the show is over, Gaza will have to deal with reality.

Key takeaways from today: 1. Despite earlier delay tactics, Hamas closely adhered to hostage deal so far: 3 live hostages handed over quickly, without further delays. 2. Lots of focus on theatrics: Armed Hamas terrorists on pickup trucks etc. But no rocket fire from Gaza ahead of ceasefire, at all. Very different from previous truce deals. 3. Bottom line: Hamas is eager to claim victory with lots of PR, but its core abilities were badly hurt. Not many rockets left & no desire to sabotage ceasefire for now.
