Chapter 196 Egypt is the key
Seeing Yasin get into the car, Rantissi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was ready to live and die with Gaza City! However, at this time, he had to escort their spiritual leader away first.
Now, it is dark, so take advantage of the night to send the leader out of Gaza City!
Now is the gap between Israeli air strikes. According to ordinary experience, within an hour, Israel will not launch another attack. And they can just send Sheikh out of Gaza. In order not to attract attention, they only used two cars.
He didn't know that there were already eyes in the darkness paying attention to them.
The car was driving in the city of Gaza. Just as it was about to leave the city, a sound of an Israeli Apache was gradually flying over behind them.
The helicopter pilots, following the guidance of the ground personnel, had discovered the two cars, and then the Haierfa missile under the short wing was launched.
In the flames, two cars turned into fireballs one after another.
………
"President Kusai, according to reliable information, Sheikh Ahmed Yasin was killed in an Israeli air strike two hours ago." Yurid reported to Kusai.
Although Iraq did not take action, the Mesiha Bureau has arranged a large number of spies in the Arab gathering area for several years, and even developed several spies within Hamas. Now, they have obtained important information.
The Israelites' operations were very straightforward. When Lantisi and others arrived, only the wreckage of the car remained on the scene.
Upon hearing this news, Kusai stood up. No matter what, although the method he adopted was wrong, like Arafat, he was also a Palestinian hero. He was persecuted by the Israeli authorities and was imprisoned countless times, but he always insisted on his faith.
Another senior staff member in Hamas is missing!
“We also contacted the authenticity in the Rafa area, and if we want small penetration, we can use the authenticity system,” Yurid continued.
typical!
If Iraq wants to interfere with Israel's military operations against the Gaza Strip without direct confrontation, what they can use is the authentic system of Rafa on the border between Egypt and Gaza.
The Gaza Strip, in the east and north is Israel, in the south is Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, and in the west is the Mediterranean Sea. Since it is a gathering area of Arabs, the Gaza region has been strictly blocked. On the ground border, similar to the original Berlin Wall, there are all live wire mesh. The only land passage between Gaza and the outside world is the five border checkpoints set up on the encirclement: the Eredes and Sufar channels entering Israel to the north, the Rafa channel entering Egypt to the south, and the cargo transport channels Karni and Kreshalo. In this land circle, there are Israeli troops patrolling. At sea, the Israeli Navy imposed a blockade of 20 nautical miles offshore, so the Gaza region was strictly controlled.
In order to break the blockade, hundreds of secret tunnels with great connections appeared unconsciously in the Gaza border. About 200 tunnels exist between the southern border of Gaza and Egypt alone. Due to the loose soil, even if you use small tools such as a jackhammer, you can dig an authentic tunnel within 6 months.
These tunnels are mainly used to smuggle various commodities needed in the Gaza region. However, during the war, they can be used to transport weapons and militants. Many of Hamas' weapons were smuggled through these tunnels.
Gaza region!
Kusai has never made up his mind. On the other hand, Gaza is not bordered by Jordan, and is separated by Israel and the Sinai Peninsula. If it is in the West Bank, Kusai's actions will be more convenient, but it will be difficult to make his actions here. Flying through the Negev region, there are Israel's airspace, so Iraq will be slandered as invasion, and from the Sinai Peninsula, there is Egypt's territory.
Now, Egypt has held peace talks with Israel, and Egypt has since been known as a traitor in the Arab world. No country in the Arab world can respect Egypt.
And in the Iraqi military alliance, only Egypt has not joined.
Egypt is reluctant to leave the present peace.
Just as Kusai was thinking, he received a news that surprised him: Egyptian President Mubarak hopes to come to Baghdad to have a secret meeting with Kusai!
Due to the last hostage incident, Egypt and Iraq's relations have eased, and the two sides have made some progress among the people. However, this is the first time that the official meeting with the national leaders.
At this critical moment, Mubarak's visit was obviously not just for a visit, and he must have a deeper intention!
Mubarak came very urgently. Just after Kusai gave the agreed answer, Mubarak's special plane took off from Cairo, flew through Saudi airspace, and arrived in Baghdad.
Mubarak is already in his sixties. The years have carved wrinkles on his face. His eyes are still as bright as before, and his steps are still strong.
When he arrived in Baghdad, it was already early in the morning...the clock was so late at night.
Mubarak has hardly visited other Arab countries. After he took over Sadat's class, he devoted himself to developing Egypt's economy and at the same time he built relations with the Western world. Especially after signing a peace agreement with Israel, Israel abides by the agreement and returns the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt, as if Egypt had become an African country and no longer interferes in Asian affairs.
Kusai really doesn't know what this Egyptian ruler is thinking.
After the polite words of both sides passed, Mubarak finally mentioned his intention: "President Kusai, what do you think about the current situation in Palestinian-Israel?"
This time Mubarak came for these things, so no matter who proposed it first, it will be discussed.
"We are now paying close attention to the follow-up progress of this matter," Kusai said.
Kusai did not lie. Now, Iraq is indeed paying close attention to the subsequent progress of the incident. Although Iraq is ready, it has not begun to enter a state of war.
From the outside world, the same is true. Iraq now has almost no substantial action except after the United Nations protested against Israel's atrocities with other countries.
"So, with such a strong military force now, are you just watching the Israelites bully our Arab brothers?" Mubarak asked.
Hearing this, Kusai felt a little funny. This old man ran to Iraq when he didn't sleep at night. Was it just to ask himself? Then he had to ask him carefully.
However, before Kusai could speak, Adnan next to him had already spoken: "At that time, Egypt had powerful force, didn't we still watch Israel's atrocities? When Israel invaded Lebanon, you didn't even mention protests?"
Since it was getting late, there were no other people around Kusai, only Adnan was still busy in the Ministry of Defense, so he called Adnan over. Moreover, this kind of meeting was obviously the fewer people, the better.
For example, even Adnan, who has always been very cautious, speaks gracefully and does things in a good manner, has begun to sarcastically mock the old man Mubarak. If there are too many people, the old man will definitely not be able to hold his face down.
After hearing Adnan's words, the people around Mubarak's face became a little excited. "Minister Adnan, we Egypt are definitely not cowards, but at that time, it was a last resort for us Egypt. If we Egypt could have the current military strength, we would definitely send troops immediately to rescue our Arab compatriots."
"Forget it, Omar." Mubarak drank the person beside him who wanted to continue to explain. He was Mubarak's closest assistant, Omar Suleiman, Director of the General Administration of Intelligence.
What happened at the time was indeed timid. They were also called traitors by the Arab brothers. They have always endured this.
But now, they no longer want to endure the infamy. Egypt was once the boss of the Arab world. They were also the passionate blood of the hero Saladin.
Hatred will not be resolved so easily. During the Middle East wars, the blood of Egyptian soldiers had already spread throughout the land. Egypt was forced to have no choice but to suffer the most in the Middle East wars, Egypt was the one who suffered the most, and they finally chose to negotiate.
Now, the war in the Middle East is still raging, and the Jews are still bullying their compatriots. The tragedy of innocent civilians in Gaza being killed all day long. For this reason, there have been fierce debates among the top leaders of Egypt.
Should we continue to maintain peace with Israel, watch them bully their Arab brothers, or do something Egypt can do?
Mubarak faces a difficult choice. What puzzles him is why Iraq has not responded. Why did this hero who dared to bomb Israel and used ballistic missiles to strike Israel?
Finally, he decided to come to Iraq in person, and perhaps this person who is already famous in the Middle East will give him the answer.
However, he didn't expect that what he heard was the result. Isn't this the official statement in the news?
If we in Egypt can have the current military strength of your side, we will definitely send troops immediately to rescue our Arab compatriots? A thought suddenly came to Kusai's mind. He said to Mubarak lightly: "If we have the Sinai Peninsula as a springboard, we will definitely send troops immediately to rescue our Arab compatriots." (To be continued.
