In recent days, conflicting maps have been published regarding the situation on the ground in the northern Gaza Strip.

Some believe that the Israeli regime’s forces have completely withdrawn, while others do not accept the Israeli army’s withdrawal and they highlight Israel’s presence in the Gaza city based on the United States think tanks’ maps or pro-Israeli viewpoints. Some consider the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas to be completely victorious, while others consider the Israeli regime to be triumphant.

However, all these differences of opinion, preferences, oppositions, and biased gestures have no effect on the reality of what is actually happening in the northern Gaza Strip.

For instance, when there are dozens of videos and reports confirming that Israeli forces have left Beit Hanoun city and taken positions on the outskirts of the city, what difference does it make if some pro-Israeli cartographers or the US think tank show Beit Hanoun as completely under Israeli control? Well, they can do that, but the reality does not change; time will show everything…

Some question why the Israeli regime withdrew from the occupied areas in Gaza City?
The answer to this question is that although the Israeli regime has withdrawn from many areas in northern Gaza, it has not withdrawn from northern Gaza and has even achieved some of its objectives. The main goal of Israel’s attack on Gaza was to destroy the Palestinian resistance Hamas. However, the destruction and elimination of Gaza and its infrastructure is another ambition of the regime, or according to some experts, the main goal of the regime’s attack on Gaza, because they themselves know well that Hamas and the Palestinian resistance, which is actually a fundamental ideology, will not be eliminated by military operations in this way.

Therefore,
Firstly, due to the very dense urban population and the presence of a vast network of undiscovered tunnels, establishing stable control over the city or, in other words, gaining complete military control over northern Gaza is not possible, and Israeli forces will be trapped in daily skirmishes with Palestinian fighters; so, they will suffer casualties.
Secondly, the cost of war in Gaza is staggering, and Israelis prefer to avoid war costs as much as possible in their current economic situation.
Thirdly, the Israeli regime’s army prefers to withdraw from this area, recover, and send forces to other active fronts in the middle and south of the Gaza Strip, rather than engaging in endless urban warfare in Gaza City and the northern Gaza Strip.

Therefore, considering all the above issue, the Israeli regime has concluded that the best course of action is to withdraw from the urban areas of northern Gaza. This also applies to the middle and southern parts of the Gaza Strip, and the Israelis will eventually withdraw after the destruction and massacre.

Now the question is that, has the Israeli regime destroyed the Palestinian resistance groups in Gaza City, or will it destroy them throughout the Gaza Strip? No, it cannot. But it has succeeded in maximum destruction of infrastructure and complete devastation of the Gaza Strip. Whether you perceive this reality as a victory or a defeat depends on your perspective and way of thinking!
