Key Takeaways:
•
Gaza Strip: Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on February 5
that Israeli operations have dismantled 18 of 24 Hamas battalions,
rendering them “no longer function as fighting military organizations.”
Gallant and the IDF have not identified a precise definition for
“dismantle.“
•
Palestinian fighters are using more sophisticated weapons to attack
Israeli forces in the areas Palestinian militias have infiltrated in the
northern Gaza Strip.
•
Iraq and Syria: A top UN official in Iraq claimed that both US
self-defense strikes and Iranian-backed Iraqi militia attacks targeting
US forces “recklessly heighten tensions,” which ignores Iran’s role in
driving escalation in Iraq. Several Iranian-backed Iraqi militias
reiterated their plans to continue attacking US forces on February 6.
• Yemen: Houthi fighters targeted two merchant vessels in the Red Sea with anti-ship missiles on February 6.
