Ejaz Haider, a military analyst, says Israel’s “ground incursion” is where it is gradually “losing its metric advantage” to Hamas.

“Urban combat is very tricky,” Haider told Al Jazeera.

Despite being strong militarily and technologically, Israel is bound to lose its “asymmetric advantage” in a ground operation because now “you’re going to go face to face, man to man, street to street”, he said.

With Israel’s relentless bombing of the Gaza Strip, it has created a lot of rubble and destroyed many buildings, Haider said.

But after a while, he added, tanks and armoured vehicles “become very useless because … you’ve got to clear the rubble you’ve created in the first place, and you need to have foot infantry”.
