New Delhi: Israel has ordered its special agents to find and eliminate "every single person" involved in the attacks on October 7. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning, stating that the country is in a dual fight of "do or die" to eradicate Hamas in Gaza. He mentioned that if Hezbollah in the north fully engages in the fight, it would be their "biggest mistake of their lives."

Formation of Special Units

Israel has established special units, similar to the operation conducted by Mossad decades ago to eliminate terrorists responsible for the Munich Olympics attack in 1972. In that incident, Israeli athletes were killed by the Palestinian group "Black September," which Israel hunted down worldwide. The order for their elimination was given by Israel's 'Iron Lady,' leader Golda Meir.

Operation "Blue" Assigned the Task

Reportedly, Israel's collaborative security service, "Shin Bet," has set up a special unit named "Blue" to eliminate all those involved in the Hamas massacre of 1,400 people two weeks ago and to cleanse their influence.

Concerns of Escalation

There are growing concerns that the Israel-Hamas conflict could escalate, involving multiple parties in West Asia. Addressing soldiers preparing to defend Israel against the Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon, Netanyahu stated, "Now we are in a dual fight. A fight for our lives. A fight for our home. This is war. It's a do-or-die situation - they will have to die."

He warned, "If Hezbollah decides to enter the war... they will make the biggest mistake of their lives."

Swift Airstrikes

Israel conducted rapid airstrikes on Gaza yesterday before ground attacks, claiming dozens of Hamas militants were killed. Israeli fighter jets also targeted two airports in Syria. Additionally, an airstrike hit a mosque in the occupied West Bank, which was reportedly used by militants.

Meanwhile, Israelis living near the northern border with Lebanon have been evacuated. Netanyahu's aggressive speech came shortly after Iran issued a warning to the United States, and it stated that if Israel does not immediately cease attacks on Gaza, Israel's war with Hamas could go "beyond control."

The situation remains tense, with the world watching closely as Israel's military actions and rhetoric intensify.
