Russians gave Hamas trophy weapons to discredit Ukraine – intelligence
The Russian Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces has already handed over to Hamas the trophy weapons captured during the hostilities in Ukraine, manufactured in the USA and EU countries.
According to the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Russians are doing this to discredit Ukraine in the Middle East.
Eventually, the Russians plan to accuse the Ukrainian military of selling Western weapons to Hamas terrorists on a regular basis.
The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense emphasizes that these fakes should be disseminated in the so-called revealing publications in the Western mass media.
For persuasiveness, the Russian special services intend to use the relevant comments of the traitor from the Border Service of Ukraine, senior lieutenant Ruslan Syrovoy, who recently fled to Moscow, the Main Intelligence Directorate says.
These accusations are supposed to sow doubts in the West and stop the supply of weapons to the Defense Forces.
On Saturday, October 7, the territories of Israel came under large-scale rocket fire from the Gaza Strip. Hamas invaded southern Israel. The first reports about the dead and captured began to appear.
In response to the Hamas attack, the Israel Defense Forces launched Operation Iron Swords and retaliated with strikes in the Gaza Strip. On the night of October 8, Israel announced the restoration of control over most of the population centers.
On October 8, the Israeli government declared a state of war for the first time since 1973. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on the people of Gaza to leave Israel and warned that the war would be difficult.
On October 9, the IDF announced the resumption of control over all cities bordering Gaza.
