Intelligence collection and analysis teams from the U.S. and the U.K. have been in Israel throughout the war, assisting Israeli intelligence in collecting and analyzing information related to the hostages, some of them citizens of both countries, according to a senior Israeli defense official familiar with the effort to locate and rescue the hostages. American officials have said their intelligence support for Israel is focused on the location of hostages and information about Hamas’ top leadership. Can Israel win without America ?
