It has been eight months since the war between Israel and Hamas started. After the attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists on October 7 last year, Israel has completely burned the Gaza Strip for the last eight months. Now despite the mediation of many countries of the world, this war is not stopping. Now the women of the country have taken a different decision. 42 thousand Israeli women have applied to the government for gun permit.
After the attack by Hamas militants last year, Israeli women are feeling unsafe. Therefore, they have applied for gun licenses for their safety. 42 thousand women have applied to get a gun license. Now 18,000 applications have been accepted. Ever since there has been a right-wing government in Israel, Netanyahu’s government has relaxed the rules on gun purchases for self-defense. Therefore, women are now coming forward and applying to buy guns.
Why are women buying guns?
Currently, more than 15,000 women in Israel have guns. Ten thousand women are taking training to use guns. Women are now more concerned about their safety. After Hamas attacks, the first priority of women is to protect their families. Therefore, guns are being kept close to protect themselves and their families. But not everyone likes this gun culture and many people are also angry with this decision. Therefore, this policy is being criticized.
This is how the war began
On October 7 last year, Hamas terrorists carried out a major attack on Israel using motorized paragliding. During this, many Israeli women and children were kidnapped and taken hostage. This included soldiers as well. Israel’s strong security claims became hollow due to this attack. Humiliated Israel then vowed to destroy Hamas. And the war began. The number of deaths on both sides is shameful for humanity. Even after such a big action by Israel, Hamas has not been completely wiped out. Therefore, everyone is afraid of what turn the fight will take now.
