Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Tuesday held two situational assessments ahead of Ramadan and warned that Israel’s enemies want to turn Ramadan into the second phase of October 7th.
“We recognize the growing preoccupation of Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas to turn the month of Ramadan into the second phase of October 7th and ignite the area,” Gallant said. “We must not let Hamas achieve what it failed to do at the beginning of the war and coordinate the combat fronts.”
“The main goal of Hamas is to take Ramadan, with an emphasis on Har HaBayis and Jerusalem, and turn it into the second phase of their plan that began on October 7th,” Gallant elaborated. “This goal is being boosted by Iran and Hezbollah. We must not let them achieve this which means we must calm the area as much as possible.”
Gallant then slammed National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir [although he did not mention him by name], warning against “irresponsible statements from people who are supposed to be responsible.”
Ben-Gvir and other right-wing ministers have publicly demanded that the government restrict Muslims from Har HaBayis on Ramadan.

I have repeatedly stared that the Zionists should become real Jews and ALLY with the Jihadi Muslims (both Shia and Sunni), to take over the world and make it Monotheist.
Islam will control the world, and the Jews will get their share: the land of Israel; specifically Jerusalem Al-Quds (ירושלים הקדושה- i actually have a coin from 2000 years ago that says that on it – in Old Hebrew).
We will move the Dome of the Rock to Har Hamishcha, and rebuild the Bait al Maqdis (מקדש).
All Monotheists will be allowed into the Miqdash; they are Gerai Toshav.
All Christians and others, will be *******
How can they do this again when there is a strong army there getting weapons from the USA literally weapons supply do you mean to say Hamas would of done this with a sufficient army guarding the gates of the prison
That’s right. the big powerful mighty idf can’t handle the arabs’ wrath if Israel protects itself. Now if only those hareidim would do their part, maybe it’d be feasible.
@Happy new year you’re not even Jewish. Why do you come to this site to stir hatred against us? Post your fecal matter elsewhere and leave us the hell alone, you stupid antisemite.
