The conflict has been going on for more than 4 months, and for the first time Hamas has revealed to the public what is going on with them: more than 6,000 people have been killed in the fighting. This data raises questions about whether Hamas will be able to continue its stubborn fight and wonder how long they will be able to hold out.
The large-scale ground fighting between Palestine and Israel has also come to an end, and according to published information, the Israeli armed forces have lost more than 10,000 people, killed 3,850 and seriously wounded 7,000. However, the number of ** caused by the war is still increasing, which is worrying. At the same time, the strength of the Hamas militants has also been severely damaged, but the true death toll remains a mystery.
The exact number of the Hamas forces, known for their secrecy, is difficult to calculate exactly, but estimates are at most 20,000 to 30,000. But the Israeli side claims that they have "cleared" 12,000 Hamas militants and killed more than 10,000 people**. The numbers are staggering, as if Hamas had been severely damaged. However, given that the IDF had to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan because of the unfavorable war situation, it seems that it will still be a long time before Hamas can achieve its goal of "total annihilation".
So how big is the real death toll on the Hamas side? On February 19, a senior Hamas* said their own data showed that the group had lost about 6,000 members in the last four months. This figure is more realistic than the death toll announced by Israel. Despite the devastation, Hamas is still putting up stubborn resistance, and Israel has not achieved its goal of attacking or destroying Hamas leaders completely.
Although only 6,000 Hamas soldiers were killed, the death toll was more than 10,000, which is a significant number. The fact that the armed forces of Hamas have reached more than half of their numbers raises concerns about their future. But the reality is that there is a good chance that Hamas will hold its ground.
Although Hamas may experience a shortage of ammunition, a lack of international aid, or food and clothing, they will never be short of personnel. This is due to the fact that Israel's long-standing behavior in the Middle East has caused great dissatisfaction among Arab countries. Many of the 500 million Arab people have a grudge against Israel, and they all want to stand up, so that they become an important source of Hamas. The biggest reason why Israel has not been able to completely destroy Hamas is that their own ** actions have "created" more and more Hamas militants.
Those who opposed the invasion would not be completely destroyed because of their strong and tenacious spirit. This is the biggest reason why Hamas is still alive and will survive. Their presence is a powerful counter-attack to Israel's invasion and a defence of peace and justice in the world.
