This show of force, welcomed by some Palestinians after months of lawlessness, could now threaten the fragile ceasefire, especially as all living hostages from Hamas’s 7 October 2023 attack have been released.

The Hamas-run police maintained a high degree of public security after the militants seized power in Gaza 18 years ago while also cracking down on dissent. They largely melted away in recent months as Israeli forces seized large areas of Gaza and targeted Hamas security forces with airstrikes.

      In this conflict it is only a matter of time until the ceasefire is broken. Anything could be used as a cause.

        I think you’re right on your first sentence. Second one is entirely superfluous; and doesn’t have substance in support for the question.

        Your antisemitism is active support of Israel. Not all Israelis are Jews and even more importantly not all Jews are Israelis. Antisemitism is the biggest argument for Zionism. As in if Jews are hated by everybody else, they need to have their own country to live without hatred.
