🌷A painful day indeed, and this is the cost of being righteous against an enemy of cowards hiding behind long walls and attacking from a distance.

But that's the reality of warfare, it doesn't give you an equal chance or ability even against a stronger foe, and it'll stay so until the conditions of the battlefield change.

A 7 month period of what was a 2 week period in 2006, then when the battlefield became infantry Vs infantry.

But today's success is historic, let's not forget.

However that change will only bring more death and destruction, making these current sacrifices the best path for now under the current goals.

Blessed be the souls of those who won martyrdom, and patience to their parents, wives, children, and friends. Patience over their loss.

🌷An old interview with Em Hassan answering after she was asked about her situation.

She smiles and says of course I don't have any bodyguard nor a special car. And continues to say she only sees him every 7-8 months barely.

📝 Being away from family is such a sacrifice, for her and for him. To heavens and all its gardens.

🌷 Wissam who was martyred today, is the brother of another martyr from two months ago, Hussein.

Hussein was not in combat, a civilian, and was killed in an Israeli attack on his home.

Brothers on the righteous path on this ending earth, united together in God's most beautiful heavens.

📝 A rumor I once heard that one of those who participated, was a reservist who was annoyed from his commanders for putting him far from the frontline, wanting action.

They kept telling him wait, wait. On that day, he was one of those who pressed the button to trigger this historic ambush.

☠️ And a side note, this area had ambushes set and detonated on several occasions, as it was the only path terrorists could use to move between their two areas of control.

One was this one, and it was a big score.

🔴 Using WhatsApp helps the Israeli army pick targets in Gaza

In April 2024, +972 Magazine journalist Yuval Abraham revealed the existence of Lavender ⁠AI: a system that automatically picks bombing targets. Lavender collects information on most of the 2.3 million residents of Gaza through a system of mass surveillance, then assesses the likelihood that each particular person is active in Hamas or PIJ, giving almost every single person in Gaza a rating from 1 to 100.

The article said that the current commander of Unit 8200 wrote in a guide book for Lavender ⁠AI that the features being used to select targets include “being in a WhatsApp group with a known militant, changing cell phone every few months, and changing addresses frequently.”

“The sources told +972 and Local Call that, during the first weeks of the war, the army almost completely relied on Lavender.” Israel has deployed additional automated systems, e.g., ‘Where's ⁠Daddy’ signals when a target has entered his family home.

Last week, The Intercept wrote that many WhatsApp employees fear that Israel has been using a vulnerability based on traffic analysis. According to their assessment: “[Deep Packet] Inspection and analysis of network traffic is completely invisible to us, yet it reveals the connections between our users: who is in a group together, who is messaging who, and (hardest to hide) who is calling who”... [A typical threat is due to peer-to-peer calls between users, which can be disabled on Telegram since many years ago but on WhatsApp only since Nov ⁠8, 2023 ⁠!]

And worse
