The senior officer in the Israeli army said today that there is a certain erosion in the cease-fire arrangements on the borders of the Gaza Strip is that Israel's deterrence factor is still there. "
The officer that "Hamas is trying to prevent fire on Israeli territory, in order to preserve Israel's security, which was denied by a Hamas leader Taha, said:" The movement is able to protect the national consensus regarding the escalation against the occupation and not to protect the security of Israeli cities.
