🇮🇱🇵🇸 ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES GATHER MORE THAN 40 TANKS AND ARMORED VEHICLES ON THE BORDER WITH GAZA

Israeli Defense Forces is amassing more than 40 tanks, armored personnel carriers and other armored vehicles on the Israeli border with Gaza.

"We are several miles north of the northern border between the Gaza Strip and Israel, and behind me there is a very unusual concentration of Israeli heavy armor," according to Dominic Waghorn, a reporter and Foreign Policy expert for the British news organization Sky News.

Waghorn told Sky News he could count at least 40 Israeli tanks, lined up just north of the Gaza border and extending out of Waghorn's sight.

Waghorn also told Sky News IDF Forces were digging trenches to create cover for artillery positions on the Gaza border. Further, Waghorn noted how in more than 20 years of covering the region, he had never seen such large groupings of Israeli armour in one location, calling the event filled with reporters a "clear show of force."

The death toll among Israelis has risen in excess of 800 as of Tuesday according to Israeli State media organization, Radio Kan.

According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, Palestinian losses from the heavy Israeli bombardment have amounted to more than 560.

Egypt steps up security on border as Israeli offensive in Gaza nears

CAIRO, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Egypt has sent about 40 tanks and armoured personnel carriers to northeastern Sinai within the past two weeks as part of a series of measures to bolster security on its border with Gaza, two Egyptian security sources said. The deployment took place ahead of the expansion of Israeli military operations around Gaza's southern city of Rafah, where much of its population has sought safety, sharpening Egyptian fears that Palestinians could be forced en masse out of the enclave.

This is akin to firefighters preventing people from getting out of a burning building, how can Egypt be so heartless? Egypt is forcing innocent Palestinian women and children to remain trapped in a war zone rather than helping them escape to the safety of the Sinai Peninsula.

Some say that if Palestinians leave Gaza, they will never be allowed to return. Would you say the same to a family being forced to remain in the path of a hurricane? How about allowing the people who are in immediate danger to make that decision? Or would you rather see more innocent Palestinian women and children die in order to make some kind of point?

For Kiev’s failed counteroffensive in 2023, the US and its allies sent hundreds of armoured vehicles to Ukraine in 2022 and 2023, from armoured personnel carriers to tanks. Yet, as CNN reveals, “dozens” of Bradley fighting vehicles were damaged or destroyed in battles against Russian forces, exposing its poor performance. This will contribute to the Republican’s resistance to a new aid package for Ukraine.

According to the media outlet, Ukrainian operators of the Bradleys are unhappy with the vehicles’ winter performance and the condition of some they received from the US. It is recalled that the Bradley’s served as the “tip of the spear during last year’s ill-fated Ukrainian counteroffensive.”

Despite exaggerating the armoured fighting vehicle’s supposed capabilities in “blunting waves of Russian attacks,” CNN complained that, of the approximately 200 Bradley’s promised to Ukraine by Washington, “dozens have been damaged and destroyed in battle.”

“Ukrainian crews, although admirers of the Bradley’s power, have also criticised its ability to weather the harsh Ukrainian winter and the state of some of the older vehicles shipped by the US,” the article adds.

Praising the infantry transport and fire support vehicles manufactured by Bae Systems, Ukrainian troops nevertheless reported to CNN that they were outmatched by Russian forces, being able to fire one artillery shell for every ten fired by Russian forces.

“’Teren,’ the commander of a nearby drone reconnaissance unit, said outright that Ukraine doesn’t have enough arms and equipment to win against Russia,” the report explained.
