Despite the huge difference in technological and military capabilities in favor of the Israeli occupation army, the clear superiority of the Izz al-Din Brigades Al-Qassam The military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (agitation) On the occupation army – in the battle of media documentation of the course of the war Gaza– He showed an irony that attracted interaction from tweeters.
Documenting battles is an important matter in propaganda and performance evaluation, and is used by fighting parties in media and psychological warfare. While the resistance brigades document their scenes with limited capabilities within the framework of what is available, every soldier in the occupation army carries an advanced camera above his head that monitors everything he encounters.
In monitoring what the occupation army published documenting its military operations in Gaza, three forms of videos appear, the first of which is camera recordings of warplanes bombing civilian homes and demolishing them over their heads, and the second is clips after the military operations, which show images of civilian detainees as captured fighters.
The third form comes in videos published by the occupation under the title “Face to Face”, but showing its soldiers firing from their machine guns in different directions without the presence of a counter-party being injured or even responding to the targeting, which was widely ridiculed on social media platforms and some considered it merely a waste of ammunition.
On the other hand, Palestinian resistance videos, primarily those produced by the Al-Qassam Brigades, show the different targets clearly, whether they are vehicles of different classifications, or soldiers on foot or entrenched, with a red triangle above them, and to show you how the process of targeting and direct injury took place.
Where is the evidence?
The Shabakat program (12/19/2023) monitored some of the tweeters’ interactions with this paradox, including what Abdel-Wadud wrote: “Al-Qassam publishes pictures showing soldiers being killed and wounded, and then they announce it.. The occupier publishes pictures of bullet strikes and says we assassinated leaders… where are they?” Guide?”.
As for Jamil, he believes in his tweet that the Al-Qassam Brigades are clearly superior in the media war, adding, “The media machine works quickly and intelligently and produces impeccable clips. I challenge the Israeli army (to) come out and tell you this is a fabrication.”
Meanwhile, Peter believes in his comment that the red triangle above the Qassam targets accurately reflects the targets, wondering, “Why doesn’t the Israeli army do the same thing? Does it lack capabilities or funding for the media or military department?”
Rawan tweeted, “So far, the bank of targets that Israel has struck are children and civilians. We have not seen any superiority in combat battles, and they are the ones publishing these strange clips of gunfire at doors and walls.”
It was striking what was shown in one of the occupation army’s clips, when an Israeli female soldier stood facing the barrel of a tank cannon while a shell was being fired, causing her to react violently without injury. The army commented, “The female soldier’s action is dangerous and violates the established safety instructions, and military penalties will be imposed on those participating in this act.”
