Stock depletion prompts ‘Israel’ to restrict arms use

Al Mayadeen | October 13, 2024

The Israeli military has adopted a policy of “strict weapons economy” regarding the use of shells and other arms in response to the depletion of ammunition stocks and the global embargo on arms exports to “Israel”, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.

According to Haaretz sources, the Israeli military is now operating under “tight weapons management,” with the authorization for using certain weapons being elevated in some cases to brigade commanders who hold the rank of colonel.

This policy is designed to ensure that senior commanders prioritize weapon usage based on their operational objectives, a responsibility previously handled by lower-ranking officers.

The Israeli military also mentioned that its “ammunition economy” for Iron Dome interceptions began in the second week of the war. However, the current state of ammunition stocks has necessitated further restrictions.

This comes as “Israel” is facing relentless military operations involving rocket, missile, and drone launches by the factions of the Axis of Resistance, namely Hezbollah, the Palestinian Resistance, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, and the Yemeni Armed Forces, since the onset of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023.

In light of these developments, countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada have recently imposed restrictions on arms exports to “Israel”, raising concerns that Israeli-owned companies may not be able to offset these losses.

The devastating number of Palestinian civilians killed due to Israeli attacks on Gaza sparked widespread pressure on several countries to limit their weapons exports to “Israel”, especially after an International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling called on the occupation entity to do everything possible to prevent acts of genocide in Gaza.

In a related context, the Israeli security establishment has expressed concern over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to delay Security Minister Yoav Gallant’s visit to the United States.

Senior officials indicated that Gallant’s planned meetings with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and other top officials in Washington were intended to discuss “Israel’s” arms requirements and shipments, as well as the potential for an attack on Iran.

Netanyahu postponed Gallant’s trip, insisting on speaking directly with US President Joe Biden before the visit.

A couple of days ago, Netanyahu and Biden held a 30-minute phone call—their first in seven weeks—during which they discussed the possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran, with the Israeli premier seeking to gauge US support and understanding of the situation.

  1. Well, the complicit/compliant ZioUSA is just gonna have to stand up and flood the Ziovermin with such “depleted arms” for continued use in genocidal endeavors. It’s the ZioAmerican way of subservience and coital-embrace entanglement….

    For me, Viva Palestine and ALL of the Valiant Axis of Resistance! (Aaron Bushnell: I haven’t forgotten your courage and solidarity and humanness…Rest in Power, Young Man.)

  2. The economy is in free fall, the jewish people are fleeing back to Europe and the US, the military cannot find enough men (or women) to fill the slots and now the Americans are rationing their ammunition because they cannot keep up production.

    The end is indeed nigh and also inevitable.

    You lived off others, in other countries for 5,000 years and were ejected from 190 of them. You tried to live on your own and discovered, like all parasites, you need a host to live off, so you bled the US dry.

    Unfortunately the problems of the world will continue because the Goyim do not have the courage to face the truth as stated by :

    Karl Marx once stated:

    “There can be no solution of the problems of the world without the destruction of the Jews and their religion, Judaism. “
