Urban warfare isn’t just fought street by street. It’s fought tunnel by tunnel—and headline by headline.
In this first episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Andrew Fox, a former British Army officer and military analyst who has studied the IDF’s campaign in Gaza and what Western militaries—and Western democracies—should learn from it. They examine how Israel adapted in real time to tunnels, civilian shields, and a battlefield designed to produce global outrage, and why the information war can decide what happens in the physical war.
In this episode, we discuss:
• How the IDF adapted under fire: tunnel operations, command integration, and rapid learning loops
• The surprising battlefield edge: data-driven medicine and forward deployment that saved hundreds of lives
• Why “civilian harm” became a strategic weapon—and what that means for future Western wars
• The enemy’s playbook: how Hamas “deletes itself” from coverage, goes underground, and builds a media ecosystem before the first shot
This conversation goes beyond slogans about “morality” or “PR.” It’s about how democracies should fight enemies who use civilians as human sacrifices, treat cameras as weapons, and understand that delegitimization can be as powerful as rockets. If the West gets the lesson wrong, the next war will be harder—and the next enemy will be smarter.
🎯 Key moment:
“The first lesson for an asymmetric enemy is this: delete yourself from the battlefield. If no one sees your casualties, if you’re absent from the coverage, the war stops looking like force-on-force—and starts looking like one side simply destroying the other.”
