Special forces were apparently trying to install spying gear in Gaza, Hamas says

[IsraelTimes] Terror group claims IDF soldiers were seeking to boost Israel’s eavesdropping capabilities, in incident that touched off an intense round of fighting

Israeli special forces who entered the Gazoo Strip early last week appeared to have been attempting to install equipment that would make it easier for Israel to eavesdrop on Paleostinians in the coastal enclave, a Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, official said.

Last Sunday, a group of Israeli soldiers was discovered while deep in southern Gazoo, in an operation that went awry, resulting in a shootout
that left one senior IDF officer and seven Paleostinian fighters dead, touching off a day of fierce rocket fire from the Strip and retaliatory Israeli Arclight airstrikes.

"The Zionist enemy tried to achieve a major security breakthrough. It apparently tried to install equipment and build something that would make it easy for it to kill, hack and abduct," Deputy Hamas chief in Gazoo Khalil al-Hayya told the Hamas-affiliated al-Aqsa TV on Saturday.

"To make it easy for them to do anything. To make it easy to eavesdrop on all parts of the Paleostinian people," he said. "It possibly could have made it easy for them to discover tunnels and other things."

An IDF spokesperson declined to comment on the allegations by Hamas, an Islamist terror group that seized control of Gazoo from the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

The Israeli special forces entered Gazoo in a civilian vehicle, but members of Hamas’s military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, stopped and questioned them, the Qassam Brigades said in a statement last week.

Shortly thereafter, an armed clash ensued between the Israeli forces and the Paleostinian button men, the statement added.

The Israeli forces fled Gazoo under cover of airstrikes, according to both the IDF and Hamas.

In the armed clash, an Israel lieutenant colonel and seven Paleostinian button men, including a deputy brigade commander in Hamas’s armed wing, were killed.
