The Hamas official, Mahmoud Mardawi, said that the Israeli occupation army’s announcement of the release of 4 Israeli captives from the Gaza Strip was aimed at covering up its military and intelligence failures.
Mardawi stressed that Israel had failed to achieve its declared goals, the most important of which is the liberation of 120 military prisoners still held captive in the grip of the resistance.
Mardawi, who is expert in the Zionist affairs, pointed out that the timing of the operation saved Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu from dismantling the war cabinet, and helped him overcome his failures over the past 8 months.
Following the Nuseirat operation, the war cabinet member Benny Gantz cancelled a press conference that was scheduled to announce, according to estimates, his withdrawal from the government.
Mardawi stressed that the media campaign accompanying the Nuseirat operation is an attempt to confuse the resistance decision amid US pressure to accept the Israeli proposal on the exchange deal.
He pointed to the involvement of Arab and Palestinian parties in the Zionist propaganda, which goes in harmony with its roles designed by the US administration to block the resistance.
Mardawi hailed the resistance especially Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, and praised their heroic operations and legendary steadfastness in the face of the Israeli aggression and genocidal war.
