In a continued display of bravery and determination, the Palestinian resistance has persisted in their fight against the invading Israeli occupation forces in Gaza for the 70th day. The resistance fighters have dealt significant blows to the ranks of the occupation forces, resulting in numerous casualties and the destruction of military equipment.
Over the past 72 hours, Al-Qassam Brigades stated that 36 soldiers were killed and dozens more were injured. Additionally, the resistance fighters successfully destroyed 72 military vehicles, either completely or partially. Abu Ubaida, the spokesman for Al-Qassam Brigades, conveyed that not only were the Israeli occupation soldiers killed and wounded, but the resistance fighters also seized their equipment and belongings.
This was a consequence of the incursive occupied forces targeting missiles, anti-fortification devices, and individuals, initiating close-range clashes, attacking their rescue teams, and facing sniping operations.
Significantly, field headquarters and command rooms of the Israeli occupied forces were targeted and destroyed, as were military forces, using mortar shells and short-range missiles.
The resistance fighters, belonging to both Al-Quds Brigades and Al-Qassam Brigades, directed rocket salvoes towards various targets within the Israeli entity. A joint operation carried out by the fighters resulted in the successful bombing of enemy concentrations in the front lines east of Khan Yunis, causing direct casualties to the enemy forces. Helicopters were called in for medical evacuations of the wounded.
In another operation, Al-Qassam Brigades and the Al-Quds Brigades stormed a house in the Al-Taqaddum axis, located in the Al-Shujaiya neighborhood in eastern Gaza. As a result, six enemy soldiers were killed or wounded.
Al-Quds Brigades also announced that, since Thursday morning, they had targeted nine military vehicles belonging to the occupation army in the Gaza Strip. These include a tank, a troop carrier, and a bulldozer.
The confrontations between the Palestinian resistance fighters and the occupation forces continue on multiple fronts. The resistance fighters have displayed heroism and inflicted heavy losses upon the enemy army in terms of both soldiers and equipment.
