Many reports of Palestinian Resistance actions have emerged during the past two weeks. The Israeli troops are facing heavy casualties in the Gaza Strip. The brutal use of the famine as a weapon by the State of Israel is not preventing the Palestinian Resistance from continuing its resistance in the Gaza Strip. We hereby share a short compilation of some of the actions.
On Thursday 24th of July, the Al-Qassam Brigades announced that it had shelled a group of Israeli soldiers and military vehicles with mortars in the Al-Qarara area, east of Khan Yunis. Earlier in the week, the Brigades said there have been detonated three barrel bombs targeting Israeli vehicles near the Batn al-Sameen area, killing and wounding several soldiers. On Saturday 26th of July, Al-Qassam combatants targeted two armored Israeli personnel carriers with explosive devices in the cockpits. After both vehicles were set ablaze, a third was hit with a Yasin 105 anti-tank missile in Abasan al-Kabira, also in Khan Yunis. The State of Israel acknowledged the deaths of three soldiers, including a company commander in various several blasts.
The Al-Qassam Brigades published footage showing some of the operations carried out by their combatants.
The Al-Qassam Brigades are very active in Khan Yunis, as it is shown in footage released of a military operation carried out by these combatants on July 28, as a part of series of the operation called “Stones of David”.
The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, released footage on Saturday 2nd of August documenting a guided missile strike on an Israeli army command and control headquarters north of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip. The missile struck the building directly, causing a blast and plumes of smoke to rise from the site.
Al-Quds Brigades released footage on Tuesday 5th of August documenting two separate military operations targeting Israeli forces east of the Al-Sheja’iya neighborhood in Gaza City. In one of them the operation was executed alongside with the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades. The second operation alongside with Ansar Brigades. These operations targeted armored vehicles and gatherings of Israeli soldiers.
The Al-Qassam Brigades announced in the past two days that they had bombed two Israeli military sites and sniped two occupation soldiers in the Gaza Strip. Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades published footage documenting a joint operation carried out with the Al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades. They bombed a gathering of Israeli soldiers in the Kafr al-Qarara area, northeast of Khan Yunis city.
The Palestinian resistance continues causing casualties and making the Israeli genocidal occupiers to make the price. Al-Qassam Brigades and Al-Quds Brigades reported that during July at least 52 Israeli military vehicles were destroyed. The Israeli Defense Ministry’s Rehabilitation Department acknowledged last week that it has treated approximately 80,000 injured soldiers, 26,000 of them suffering mental health conditions.
