Gaza-Israel Conflict | October 2023

.
So mobile networks work on multiple redundancies:

A standard mobile network will have one more BTS, the BTS has its own UPS and back up generator, as an added redundancy, the BTS can go into "MESH" networking mode essentially becoming a repeater for nearby cell tower thus providing you with the best possible signal/reception:

The Cell tower is just an access point, the main leg work is done by what was known in the old world as a "telephone exchange" in modern parlance it is referred to as a BSC & MSC: Base Switching Centre and Main Switching Centre:

Even if the WiMAX, LTE, WAP is unsustainable, the MSC will conserve bandwidth and revert to GSM mode this only allowing Short Message Service and limited voice bandwidth, we witnessed this between the 03-10-2023 and 10-10-2023, despite the limited bandwidth for WiMAX and 3th Generation LTE, cellular networks are still able to provide a minimal operational level of communication.

Of course, the redundancies are just that, back up, eventually those diesel generators will run out of fuel and if power is not restored, the towers and switching centres will fail to function. As it stands 3G LTE is only available in limited areas of Gaza, most cellular services offer WiMAX and WAP along with GSM:

Interestingly due to how small the Gaza Strip is, most phones can still pick up the roaming repeater from Egypt:

I hope this answered your question.
Thank you. I was thinking about diesel generators stopping after a few days. Secondly, if the phones are provisioned for Gaza network, they can't automatically work on Egyptian network unless they are all provisioned. The networks have even different country codes: 20 for Egypt and 970 for Gaza. It is unlikely that Egyptian network has enough spare capacity to accept that many new connections considering it is in the Sinai desert and hence would be a low-capacity base.

UN: The situation inside Gaza is an unprecedent humanitarian catastrophe. Lynn Hastings who is the United Nations lead on aid has demanded an unconditional release of hostages and an immediate cease fire to allow aid workers to save lives.

Nuclear war everyone loses

Correct.
And what are Israel's nukes for? Do you ever foresee Egyptians or Syrians or other armies marching on you like they did in the formations of 1973 and before? No. They will not do so--not until you stop hiding behind Uncle Sam's protection. Why do you need the American fleet when all you are confronting is a militia from an imprisoned small strip of land? Or is it the fear of Hezbollah? Or you think your vaunted military is just a paper tiger? Any answers to those questions, please?

You broadcast your weakness to the world and yet you boast of your strengths. But baby killing using bombs, drones and artillery from a safe distance is your main strength!!

We really don't care about Pakistan lol
I don't understand why you are shoving this mantra again and again.

LOL You don't care. You just like to tweet on a Pakistan versus India cricket match... Insecure bastards.

Bring it on bitch. Bring it on. Just give us an opportunity.

Why does your country beg for recognition from Islamic countries? Why are you begging for a deal with KSA?

Difference is that Gazans have the geographic advantages: Land continuity, even for a few hundred SQ KMs AND a border with a sympathetic country like Egypt--the kind of weaponry we see in Gazans' hands would not be possible without having ideological allies in Egypt.
@Muhammed45 is saying its because of Egypt and Sisi that Iran is not able to arm hamas with the same weapons as Hezbollah. It seems Egypt current government is more anti-hamas and pro-israel.
