Yedioth Ahronoth", an Israeli daily newspaper, revealed today, Friday, that Arab drivers who work for the Israeli army (IDF) succeeded in thwarting major aggression planned by the IDF on the Gaza Strip last May.

It is worth noting that Israel's forces clashed with groups of the Palestinian resistance in the Strip for eleven days in May.

Israeli warplanes carried out then thousands of airstrikes that killed and injured thousands of Palestinian civilians.

On the other hand, the Palestinian fighters shelled the main Israeli cities with about six thousand rockets that left wide destruction there.

But the fighters of the resistance make Israel paid through the nose for its attacks on civilians in the Mediterranean enclave.

The Arab truck drivers get the wind of the Israeli plans to carry out a wide-range assault on Gaza over May conformations.

Yedioth Ahronoth affirmed that hundreds of the Arab drivers refused or did not arrive on time to the military bases throughout Israel to drive the heavy trucks that convey tanks and other weaponry in the vicinity of the Strip during the last operation known in the Palestinian sources as "Jerusalem Sword".

The Israeli newspaper added that among five hundred Arab drivers contracted with the IDF, only forty drivers came to their workplace over days appointed to carry the aggression on the Strip.

The Israeli military establishment betted on misleading fighters of the resistance movements to push them out in open war, making the Palestinian easy targets of the Israeli warplanes.

The newspaper explained that the IDF sought to implement an alternative plan during the war by recruiting drivers from other units to bridge the gap resulting from an absence of the Arab truckers.

The commandment of the Israeli army has asked to investigate that event and prepare other plans to never repeat such an event.
