Political adviser to Gaza Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, Yousef Rizqa, has considered that the recent Israeli raids on Gaza are part of "an Israeli strategic plan to prove that truce could only be achieved through military deterrence."
Rizqa told Quds Press that these Israeli raids came within the framework of a Zionist strategic military plan under which the pacification should be based on military deterrence and imposing a heavy price on the Palestinians for every missile and every resistance operation they launch.
He emphasized on the need for Palestinian national and factional consensus to face the Israeli plan that is uncovered for resistance men.
"I do not think that the Israeli side cares for the Egyptian position in this period because Egypt is now busy with its presidential elections and not concerned with the Israeli aggression on Gaza”, he said regarding the Egyptian position who was the mediator of the last truce agreement, adding that what is going to happen on the Egyptian side is only protests against such Israeli raids.
The practical steps need a stable situation in Egypt and to a new revolutionary leadership that has a strategic position towards the Israeli aggression on Gaza and this takes some time until ending the Egyptian presidential election and achieving political stability.
