2000 Military Prepared: The US is considering the opportunity to send troops to war in Israel

According to officials of the Ministry of Defense, this decision is related to the crisis of hostages, which was captured by the terrorist group of Hamas. "Baiden administration excluded the departure of troops, in particular special purpose forces, to Gaza in the framework of attempts to release Americans who are hostage there. But this decision was announced by a high -ranking official in the White House may be reviewed," WSJ sources emphasize.

The reality of this decision, according to the publication, will depend on the level of escalation in the coming days. At the same time, US troops have already been assigned tasks such as counseling and medical support. According to WSJ insiders, these units are not intended for hostilities, that is, they will not be sent to Israel, but can be sent to the countries of the region.

"It is unclear under what circumstances the United States could place the troops and where, but the Pentagon's decision signaled that they are preparing to support Israeli troops if Israel began to take a ground invasion of the Gaza Sector," the sources of the newspaper emphasize. And they add that the US military units are now stationed both in the Middle East and outside the region, in particular in Europe.

According to experts, hostages in Hamas are currently from 100 to 150 people, including missing US citizens. One of the proposals discussed, according to journalists, is to exchange Israeli women and children for 36 Palestinian women and minors in prisoners in Israeli prisons. However, according to the senior analyst at the Institute of Politics and Strategy of Israeli University Reichman Michael Milstein, everything is much more complicated now.

If at normal time the main priority for Israel would be the return of hostages, today it is the complete destruction of Hamas. On Monday, October 16, a representative of the tacharadmiral Daniel Hagari stated that the military was searched on both sides of the border with the Gaza Sector in search . In addition, families of 199 people were informed on October 16 that their loved ones were held in the Gaza Sector.

Daniel Hagari said the military has some information about the location of the hostages held there. We remind you that Focus wrote that the authorities of Israel suggested urgently evacuated to the residents of Gaza. In order not to suffer from the anti -terrorist operation, at least one million citizens must leave. Meanwhile, the death toll continues to grow. As of October 13, 1,300 people were killed in Israel, most of whom were victims of terrorist attacks committed by Hamas on October 7-8.

According to the tank, this amount includes 222 servicemen who have died since then. Reuters reported that the ceasefire regime was temporarily introduced to the places where the refugees were located. However, the authorities of Israel denied: the truce was not announced. On October 16, Kneset was forced to interrupt the parliamentary session after a 40-minute break caused by a powerful rocket volley on Jerusalem. For the first time in history, Israel evacuated the whole city of the Sredot.
