Another video of Israel AF strikes folding highrise towers in Gaza https://t.me/dva_majors/26972

And another lesson for Rus Gov to learn: Energy Minister Yisrael Katz has signed an order ordering the Israeli Electric Company to stop supplying electricity to the Gaza Strip.

That is the usual stupid Israel military class show for internal consumption, what is the effectiveness of that?

I can't say about Israel internal politics (it is up to them after all), but since Russian energy is still powering pro-Ukrainians, and not only them -  i would at least like to see "stupid Russian military class show for internal consumption" for example vs. Rada building.

  Meanwhile more blockbusting videos

Obviously i have no problem hitting buildings that matter. 

But striking buildings do not degrade Hamas significantly.

Especially when anything of important to Hamas is literally buried underground.

Tel Aviv is being hit with rockets yet again.

What happened to Iron Dome? This was a relatively effective system, but it’s showing some serious deficiencies now.

Israeli response so far seems to be very sluggish at the moment.

One claim is there was so many rockets, they saturated  the system. Another is some units were not mobilized because it was a surprise attack they were not expecting.

 

This is disconcerting.

Touche.  Actually for Israel is even worse, they have drones of that kind almost from 10 years go. And imagination could have made them even ealier.

The problem is that military culture specially the high echelons like high end stuff only.

It's disconcerting we have been watching this new warfare for over a year and a half, and the IDF was completely surprised by it.

The same is said by pro-Russians who watch Israel SOF/SWAT walking into battle in dense groups, ideat target for drones....

  By the way have anybody allready blamed Russia for this attack? Today is Putin's 71st birthday....

Call of Duty called, they want their game back.

I'll bet a fiver to a pound of shit, Iran was behind this.

There have been several reports and images of non Arabic combatants. Some say they maybe Houthis.

It's a problem, right across the western world.

Saying on TV "A high rise tower in Gaza was demolished" is indeed for internal consumption, to ease the minds of Israelis that the IDF is working. This is particularly important because Israelis typically berate the IDF for striking dunes and empty shacks. But that does not mean it's without practical purpose. The IAF doesn't strike high rise towers just for show, and indeed most strikes are not provided for the media. The single reference to a destroyed high rise tower I know of is to one which housed Hamas political activity of some sort. Considering the IAF follows international intelligence, incrimination, and strike standards, and even exceeds them in many areas, we know it doesn't strike simple civilian infrastructure.

High rise towers are an excellent spot for the storage of weapons, "soft" measures like emitters (comms, radars, jammers etc), observation, combat positions, and most importantly, convergence points for Hamas's extensive tunnel system. The idea is to shield these assets by having Israel risk bad publicity, as well as elevated risk of civilian casualties.
