After The American Threat of Arms Embargo: Netanyahu Ordered to Increase Aid to Gaza:
The cabinet is expected to discuss Netanyahu's directive on Sunday, and among other things will discuss a proposal published here in the news to find an armed contractor company to distribute aid in the Gaza Strip

After the threat of the American embargo, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu ordered to increase the scope of humanitarian aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip to 250 trucks a day. As here news learned today (Friday), the cabinet is expected to discuss aid to Gaza on Sunday, among other things, a proposal to find an armed contractor company that will distribute aid in the Gaza Strip.
Earlier today, the IDF announced that in accordance with the directive of the political echelon, 30 trucks containing humanitarian aid including food, water, medical equipment and equipment for shelters were transferred on behalf of the international community to the northern Gaza Strip through the Port of Ashdod to the Erez West crossing.

This week there was a special visit by the UN humanitarian coordinator who met with senior Israeli officials. The coordinator Sigrid Kaah told the Israeli officials: "We are concerned about the closure of the north of the Strip to humanitarian access from the beginning of October and are concerned about the fact that there is a dramatic decrease in the amount of aid coming in."
This is after the United States announced its intention to stop transferring weapons to Israel, if steps are not taken to improve the humanitarian situation and the entry of aid into the Gaza Strip. The letter was sent to Israel following the administration's suspicion that it is not meeting its obligations under international humanitarian law in the northern Gaza Strip.

Israel said to request US send second THAAD missile defense battery ahead of Iran attack:
Israel has requested that the US send a second THAAD battery to protect the country in case of an Iranian reaction to an expected Israeli reprisal attack, Channel 12 reports.

The Pentagon on Sunday confirmed that Washington will send one advanced air defense battery to Israel, along with American soldiers to operate it.

The THAAD is considered a complimentary system to the Patriot system but can defend a wider area, capable of hitting targets at ranges of 150-200 kilometers (93-124 miles).
Each battery consists of six truck-mounted launchers, 48 interceptors, radio and radar equipment, and requires 95 soldiers to operate.

Iran has been bracing for an Israeli retaliation after its October 1 attack, which it said came in response to Israeli strikes in Lebanon last month that killed the top leadership of the Hezbollah terror group, an Iranian proxy, and a July blast in Tehran that killed Hamas politburo head Ismail Haniyeh.

Israel intends to target Iran’s Revolutionary Guards:
Israel plots strikes on Iran ‘to topple regime’
Binyamin Netanyahu believes airstrikes could weaken the Revolutionary Guard and Basij paramilitary force, which have put down mass protests against Iran’s leaders
Israel has been consulting the US on its retaliation for the salvo of nearly 200 Iranian missiles launched against it this month, narrowing down targets to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and its volunteer paramilitary force. There is a third more indirect goal: encouraging regime change.

Binyamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, hinted as much in a video statement, billed as an address to the Iranian people, several days before Iran’s missile attack. The speech in English was perhaps aimed at western countries and the Iranian opposition, which is based abroad, critics said.

“Don’t let a small group of fanatic theocrats crush your hopes and your dreams … The people of Iran should know: Israel stands with you,” Netanyahu declared. “When Iran is finally free — and that moment will come a lot sooner than people think — everything will be different.”
Netanyahu hopes that Israel’s future airstrikes will help to weaken the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Basij paramilitary force, two pillars of the Islamic regime that have been instrumental in putting down mass protests against it. The IRGC is both an elite military force and a dominant presence in Iran’s economy, while the Basij, a loyalist militia regularly used as foot soldiers, has branches across the country.

“They’re planning to hit them hard,” a western official said this week of Israel’s plan, adding that this could encourage Iran’s opposition.
A realist, Netanyahu would not believe that one wave of airstrikes, or even several, would topple the regime by encouraging a popular uprising.

But some in Israel’s leadership, including the far-right coalition ministers who support harsh action against Iran, believe that this is a defining moment that can change the power balance in a region that feels caught between the US and Israel on the one hand, and Iran and its “axis of resistance” on the other.

That view has been reinforced by the rapid decapitation of Hezbollah, Iran’s most powerful asset among the network of proxies and allies it had cultivated for decades to counter Israel.
Firas Maksad, senior fellow with the Middle East Institute think tank, said: “The Biden administration and the Israelis have come to a general understanding that the first stage of Israeli response will be limited to military and the IRGC and Basij, and they will stay away from nuclear and oil facilities. Going after the Basij and IRGC will, some hope, put further strain on the relationship between them and the people.”
