Digging in, IDF builds dozens of bases in and around expanded Netzarim Corridor – NYT
|
[IsraelTimes] Report says satellite images and video footage indicate the military has demolished around 600 buildings in last 3 months to create a buffer zone around the central Gaza corridor
The IDF has significantly bolstered its presence in the central Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip in recent months, and the territory controlled by Israel in and around the so-called Netzarim corridor has rapidly expanded, according to a report Monday, in an apparent indication the IDF is preparing to remain inside the Paleostinian enclave for at least the foreseeable future.
By analyzing satellite images and video footage, the New York Times
...which still proudly claims Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
reported that Israeli forces have also constructed several dozen new bases in and around the corridor over the last three months.
The Netzarim Corridor, which started as a four-mile strip of land, is built around a road south of Gaza City, enabling the IDF to carry out raids in northern and central Gaza while controlling access to the north for Paleostinians seeking to return after fleeing south. It also enables Israel to coordinate deliveries of humanitarian aid directly to northern Gaza.
In recent months, however, the corridor has significantly expanded, reaching as far as the outskirts of Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood to the north, and the Wadi Gaza stream to the south, encompassing around 47 square kilometers (18 square miles) of land.
The IDF has attempted to create what appears to be a buffer zone around the outskirts of the military-controlled block of land, the report said, and in doing so, has demolished around 600 buildings, residential and otherwise, over the last three months.
The Times said that the estimation was reached by analyzing satellite images and video footage taken by the IDF’s Combat Engineering Battalion between September 3 and November 21.
Troops have also "rapidly expanded a network of outposts equipped with communications towers and defensive fortifications," the report said.
The IDF’s expansion work "suggests that it may be preparing to exert long-term control over the area," The Times said.
An IDF front man told the newspaper that the buildings were demolished in order to prevent Hamas
 ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
operatives from using them as lookout points, or as a place to hide ahead of launching attacks on Israeli forces.
Inside the expanded Netzarim Corridor area, additional satellite images analyzed by the Times found that the IDF has been building at a rapid pace, having either constructed or expanded the existing infrastructure of 12 military bases since early September.
In total, the report said, the IDF has constructed at least 19 large military bases and dozens of smaller ones in the area surrounding the Netzarim Corridor since the start of the war against Hamas last October.
The satellite images revealed extensive fortifications surrounding the bases, many of which the news outlet said were walled off, with access roads and parking spaces for armored vehicles.
Some also have communications towers, it added, and the largest of the bases is attached to a checkpoint.
Despite the rapid expansion of Israeli infrastructure, an IDF front man seemed to reject the notion that the military was preparing for a permanent presence in the enclave, telling the Times that "anything that has been built [in the Netzarim Corridor] can be taken down within a day."
