Can’t seem to find any sources for how large an organization they are…any help?
If Israeli troops invaded Gaza, would they be facing hundreds or thousands of armed Palestinians?
Not sure but really none of these countries in middle east other than may be Iran can do any thing to harm Israel .They normally provoke Israel and than Israel respond aggressively and than cry about it on news. If Israel really wanted to they could send most of those countries back to stone age.
It does not really metter if there are hundreds or thousands there no threat to Israel army.
“While the number of members is known only to the Brigades leadership, Israel estimates the Brigades have a core of several hundred members who receive military style training, including training in Iran and Syria.[46] Additionally, the brigades have an estimated 10,000 operatives “of varying degrees of skill and professionalism” who are members of Hamas or their supporters and the internal security forces. These operatives can be expected to reinforce the Brigades in an “emergency situation”.”
For comparison:
“Hezbollah has not revealed its armed strength. It has been estimated by Mustafa Alani, security director at the Dubai-based Gulf Research Centre that Hezbollah’s military force is made up of about 1,000 full-time Hezbollah members, along with a further 6,000–10,000 volunteers.”
Israel has had a bit of difficulty with Hezbollah in the past. 2006 Lebanon War - Wikipedia
If Israel were willing to do to Gaza what the Russians did to Grozny in 1999-2000, they could have an easy time although they would have to commit a lot of resources, kill a lot of civilians, devastate the city and they would still likely have hundreds of killed and a few thousand wounded IDF personnel.
