Palestine's armed organization Hamas has suddenly started a war against Israel. On the morning of Saturday, October 7, Hamas claimed to have fired 5,000 rockets. People in Israel were celebrating the festival and were trying to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex by taking out a rally, when the rocket created havoc everywhere. Hamas has called it a 'military operation' and has also appealed to Arab countries to come together. These days the proximity of Arab countries to Israel is increasing.
Some are already 'friends' of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Meanwhile, while Hamas fighters are entering Israeli cities and claiming to capture some areas, they are in the 'war' field and will the Arab countries, who have been defeated by Israel in earlier wars, come in support of Palestine? ?
Israeli local media claims that more than 230 people have been killed in Israel (the number is increasing) and a large number of people have been injured. There is a possibility of major losses in border cities. Incidents of fire have been reported in some cities. There is an atmosphere of chaos. People are pleading for help from the government. Shocked by the sudden attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared war against Palestine. He has launched “Operation Iron Swords”. The Air Force is bombing Gaza Strip in Palestine. Ground attacks from Israel are also continuing.
Hamas wreaked havoc in Israel's border cities
Hamas fighters have entered the border areas. The fighters have claimed to have captured some areas. No one heard about this attack. America's intelligence agencies also did not give any kind of warning. Khaled Kadomi, a spokesman for Hamas, said, “We want the international community to stop atrocities against the Palestinian people in Gaza and our holy sites like Al-Aqsa.” Along with this, he appealed to the “Arab countries and Islamic countries” as well as the “Resistance Forces” of the West Bank to support the fight.
Increased pressure on Arab countries
After Hamas jumped into the war against Israel, pressure has increased on Arab countries that claim to stand with Palestine. These days the friendship between Israel and Arab is deepening. Talks with Saudi are also almost certain and peace agreements are about to happen. All this is happening under the leadership of America. Saudi Arabia is reportedly adamant on the issues of Palestine only. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman wants a two-state formula, on which it is being said that the matter has not been reached.
What did Arab and Islamic countries say on Hamas attack?
One opponent of Arab-Israeli friendship is Iran, which has openly supported Hamas and “congratulated” the fighters for entering Israel. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan asked both parties to exercise "restraint" and "maintain peace." Saudi urged to immediately stop tensions amid talks on peace deal with Israel. The Kingdom appealed to the international community to start the peace process on the two-state formula without any delay.
Egypt, which has close friendship with Israel, warned of 'serious consequences' of the conflict. Egypt and Israel together have occupied Gaza from all sides. Often people from the Gaza Strip used to go to the occupied West Bank and other cities for work, but due to the sanctions the economic situation has worsened and a large population of 2.3 million is in poverty. However, on the latest confrontation, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said that both sides “should not put the lives of civilians at risk.”
The United Arab Emirates, another close to Israel, appealed for an 'immediate ceasefire' to end tensions and avoid dangerous consequences. Qatar said that only Israel is responsible for the increasing violence against the Palestinian people. Also accused the Israeli regime of using the violence as an excuse to start a war.
Relations between Israel, Arab and Islamic countries
Countries like United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan have established 'peace' with Israel. Hamas has also appealed to Islamic countries to cooperate with Israel in 'military operation'. In such a situation, it is necessary to put pressure on those 57 Islamic countries, which are members of OIC and are at loggerheads with Israel on the issue of Palestine. The opinion of most of the countries has been clear and there is no dispute except the dispute on the issue of Palestine. Countries like Syria, Jordan and Iraq have been defeated by Israel, while the internal situation of these countries is unstable.
Will Arab countries remember their last defeat?
Israel has fought three wars with Arab countries since its establishment. In the 1948 war, Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq together waged war against Israel. In this struggle for existence, Israel captured a large part of the Arab countries. With this it expanded its range. This dispute with its Arab neighbors is still unresolved and the Arabs have also stopped talking about it.
In the 1967 war, the Israeli army captured the Golan Heights from Syria, the West Bank including East Jerusalem from Jordan and the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt. In the third and sudden attack of 1973, the Arabs had driven out Israel. However, there has been no response yet to the appeal to come together with Hamas.
