“What happened is beyond any expectation,” the source said. “Today is a turning point in the conflict.” “As Hamas watched the Israelis and Saudis move close to an agreement, they decided: no seat at the table? Poison the meal,” she said.Osama Hamdan, the leader of Hamas in Lebanon, told Reuters that Saturday’s operation should make Arab states realise that accepting Israeli security demands would not bring peace.
He said the assault by air, land and sea was “a shock to the enemy and proved the Israeli military intelligence failed to find out about this operation,” after Israel, which prides itself on its infiltration and monitoring of militants, was taken by surprise. Netanyahu has previously said the Palestinians should not be allowed to veto any new Israeli peace deals with Arab states.
