Hamas is seeking Russian support in pressuring the Palestinian Authority (PA) to negotiate over a national unity government with Hamas in the Gaza Strip.[1] Hamas Political Bureau member Mousa Abu Marzouk met with Deputy Russian Foreign Affairs Minister Mikhail Bogdanov in Moscow on October 23 to request that Russia pressure PA President Mahmoud Abbas to negotiate with Hamas over a national unity government.
Hamas is likely responding to the Emirati-proposed plan for post-war governance in the Gaza Strip.[2] The plan would involve appointing a reformed PA led by an independent prime minister to administer the Gaza Strip, leaving Hamas excluded from post-war governance. Negotiating a national unity government with the PA, on the other hand, would allow Hamas to retain a role in post-war governance. Hamas would likely exploit the establishment of a national unity government to gradually expand its control and influence in the Gaza Strip.
US and Israeli officials will resume negotiations in Qatar on a ceasefire-hostage agreement for the Gaza Strip in the coming days.[3] US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Qatari Foreign Affairs Minister Mohamad bin Abdulrahman al Thani announced the plans on October 24. Al Thani added that Qatar has reengaged Hamas since Israel killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.[4] A Hamas delegation separately traveled to Egypt on October 24.[5] Senior Hamas official Khalil al Hayya reiterated Hamas’ maximalist negotiating position on October 18.[6]
PA President Mahmoud Abbas has “poured” forces into Tubas in the West Bank in recent weeks in order to crack down on the Palestinian militias there.[7] This PA effort is meant to diminish the influence of the militias in the northern West Bank in response to Iranian efforts to empower the militias and undermine the PA. PA forces have arrested at least three Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) fighters in Tubas during this period.[8] Residents have reported violent clashes between PA forces and militias there in recent weeks as well.[9] Palestinian militias, including Hamas and PIJ, have accused the PA of serving Israeli interests and called on militants to confront the PA forces in Tubas.[10] The PA operation into Tubas came as Israeli forces conducted their own campaign in August and September 2024 to degrade Palestinian militia across the West Bank in recent months.[11]
Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri said that all relevant parties have fully implemented UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1701, which prohibits Lebanese Hezbollah military activity in southern Lebanon. Berri’s assertion ignores the extensive, decades-long Hezbollah efforts to entrench itself militarily in southern Lebanon. CTP-ISW has previously argued that the UN Interim Force in Lebanon has largely failed to undertake its assigned tasks, which includes enforcing UNSCR 1701.[12] Berri reportedly made the assertion that all relevant parties are adhering to UNSCR 1701 during a meeting with senior US official Amos Hochstein in Beirut on October 21.[13] Hochstein has reportedly suggested amending UNSCR 1701 by expanding the deployment of Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) to southern Lebanon.
Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati separately announced on October 24 that his government plans to recruit more LAF troops and possibly deploy 8,000 soldiers to southern Lebanon.[14] The LAF currently has about 5,000 personnel in southern Lebanon.[15] It is unclear whether the 8,000 number is the envisioned end strength for the LAF in southern Lebanon or would be in addition to the 5,000 soldiers already there. Increasing the LAF force size is unlikely to improve the enforcement of UNSCR 1701, however, so long as the Lebanese state and LAF are unwilling to prevent Hezbollah activity in the area.

Axis of Resistance objectives:
Prepare for an expanded and protracted conflict with Israel in the near term
Expel the United States from SyriaIDF Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi said on October 23 that the IDF could reach a decisive end to the war.[42] Halevi said that Israel has degraded Hezbollah’s senior leadership “in a very thorough way.”[43] The IDF recently confirmed the death of Hashem Safi ed Din—the presumed successor to Hassan Nasrallah—in an airstrike on Beirut three weeks prior. CTP-ISW previously noted that Hashem Safi ed Din’s confirmed death will impact Hezbollah’s political succession but will not further affect Hezbollah’s immediate tactical decisions.[44]
Hezbollah claimed that it has continued to engage the IDF 210th Division in Hasbaya District.[45] Hezbollah previously claimed on October 23 that Israeli forces attempted to advance into the outskirts of Kfarchouba and Shebaa towns.[46] Hezbollah stated that it attacked Israeli positions with unspecified weapons.[47] Lebanese sources reported IDF artillery targeting Kfarchouba and Shebaa on October 24.[48]

The IDF 91st Division continued clearing operations in southeastern Lebanon on October 24. The IDF 769th Infantry Brigade and 91st Division engineers destroyed an underground Radwan special operations forces (SOF) complex on the outskirts of Blida.[54] Israeli forces, including the 769th Brigade and the Shaldag SOF unit, had previously located the complex during covert raids into southern Lebanon over the past year.[55] Geolocated footage previously showed Israeli forces clearing the buildings on October 20.[56] The 769th Infantry Brigade also raided military buildings, including a Hezbollah weapons warehouse in a hotel.[57] Israeli forces located hundreds of anti-tank launchers and long-range missiles that Hezbollah has launched towards northern Israel in recent months.[58] The 91st Division killed about 20 Hezbollah fighters and located large quantities of weapons, including rocket launchers, mortars, and ammunition.[59] Hezbollah claimed that Israeli forces attempted to advance towards eastern neighborhoods in Houla on October 23.[60]
The IDF 36th Division expanded clearing operations in Aitaroun and Aita al Shaab on October 24.[61] The 36th Division located and destroyed a number of weapons depots, a rocket launcher, and improvised explosive devices.[62] Hezbollah claimed on October 23 that Israeli forces attempted to advance towards Aitaroun’s town center from the east and from the west.[63] Commercially available satellite imagery captured on October 24 showed flattened terrain and destroyed buildings in Aitaroun, indicating that Israeli forces operated in the town. Commercially available satellite imagery captured on October 24 also showed flattened terrain and destroyed buildings in the eastern outskirts, indicating that Israeli forces operated in the eastern outskirts of Aitaroun. Hezbollah fired mortars and rockets targeting IDF personnel east of Aitaroun.[64]
Hezbollah fighters fired small arms and several anti-tank guided missiles targeting Israeli armor operating in Aita al Shaab.[65] Hezbollah claimed that it killed or wounded several IDF personnel.[66]

The IDF continued to target Hezbollah’s drone unit, Unit 127, on October 24. The IDF said it killed a Unit 127 fighter in a targeted strike in southern Lebanon.[78] The fighter had launched a drone targeting Israel.[79] The IDF strikes targeting Hezbollah’s drone unit and drone production infrastructure are part of its response to Hezbollah’s October 13 attack on an IDF base in Binyamina, Israel, that killed four Israeli soldiers.[80]
The LAF claimed that three LAF soldiers were killed in an IDF airstrike on a town near the Israel-Lebanon border.[81] The IDF is investigating the reports and stated that it does not intend to harm any Lebanese soldiers.[82] US Defense Secretary Austin Lloyd expressed concerns about reports of Israeli strikes against the LAF and stressed the importance of taking steps to ensure the safety of LAF soldiers and UN peacekeepers during his call with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.[83] This incident marks the third Israeli strike that targeted LAF positions since October 1.[84]
This map illustrates individual Israeli air and artillery strikes based on local Lebanese reporting. This map depicts strikes reported from 2:00pm ET on October 23 to 2:00pm ET on October 24. This map is not exhaustive. CTP-ISW cannot independently verify the locations of Israeli strikes.

Hezbollah continued to conduct long-range attacks into central Israel, including one attack on Tel Aviv and two on Haifa.[92] Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem said on October 15 that Hezbollah would initiate a new phase of the war designed to inflict high casualties on Israel.[93] Hezbollah’s Operations Room also noted on October 17 that Hezbollah would ”escalate” its attacks in the coming days.[94] Hezbollah has since expanded the scope and pace of operations into Israel, including by targeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s home in Caesarea with an attack drone on October 19 and conducting multiple attacks targeting Tel Aviv in central Israel.[95]
Iran and the Axis of Resistance
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq—a coalition of Iranian-backed Iraqi militias—has claimed three attacks targeting Israel since CTP-ISW’s last data cutoff on October 23. The claims include the following:
A drone attack targeting an unspecified military target in northern Israel[96]
A drone attack targeting an unspecified “vital target” in northern Israel[97]
A drone attack targeting an unspecified "vital target” in the Jordan Valley[98]The IDF likely conducted airstrikes targeting two Syrian Arab Army (SAA) sites in Syria on October 22.[99] The airstrikes struck SAA sites in western Homs and Kafr Sousa neighborhood in Damascus. The Syrian Defense Ministry stated that the Israeli airstrikes killed one SAA personnel and injured seven others.[100]
Iranian state and Houthi media reported that the United States and United Kingdom conducted airstrikes targeting the Hudaydah airport twice overnight between October 23-24.[101] Anti-Houthi media reported that a US airstrike targeted a Houthi military tunnel in the Hudaydah airport.[102] US Central Command (CENTCOM) has not acknowledged the strike at the time of writing.
Houthi Supreme Leader Abdulmalik al Houthi vowed to continue missile and naval operations against Israel in his weekly speech on October 24.[103] Abdulmalik claimed that Israel wants to control the security of Lebanon.

Sisi called for greater understanding between Iran and Egypt.[111] Iran and Egypt do not have formal diplomatic ties, although Iran has signaled its willingness to restore relations with Egypt in recent months. Iranian Foreign Affairs Minister Abbas Araghchi recently met with Sisi in Cairo on October 17.[112]
Emirati President Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan. Nahyan and Pezeshkian emphasized the need to stop Israeli operations in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip.[113] Pezeshkian also reiterated Iran’s territorial claims to the Greater and Lesser Tunbs and Abu Musa islands in the Persian Gulf.[114]
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed. Pezeshkian reiterated that Iran will give a “decisive and unbelievable response” to Israel if Israel attacks Iran.[115]
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. Pezeshkian claimed that Iran’s membership in BRICS can help “reduce unilateralism” and decrease the effectiveness of international sanctions.[116]
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Pezeshkian claimed that “independent” countries can create a “new world order.”[117] Iran has historically tried to use multilateral institutions, such as BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, to encourage the formation of a “multilateral” world order to confront US “unilateralism.” Maduro called for Iran and Venezuela to increase energy cooperation.[118][1] https://ria dot ru/20241024/hamas-1979718574.html
