Israeli Forces suffer heavy casualties in Rafah, Netzarim

The Palestinian resistance continues to confront the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) that have penetrated various combat axes in the Gaza Strip, especially in Rafah and Netzarim, where they are inflicting heavy losses on the IOF.

The IOF has admitted that 3 of its troops were injured in battles within Gaza in the last 24 hours.

The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced that it had bombarded the occupation forces that had penetrated the vicinity of the Tell al-Hawa neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City, in addition to its command headquarters in the Netzarim axis, with short-range missiles.

In southwestern Gaza City, in Tell al-Hawa, occupation forces have launched another incursion into the neighborhood that has lasted for a couple of weeks. On Friday, occupation forces made it seem as though they had retreated from certain areas, luring citizens who had been displaced back to their homes,

Gaza’s Health Ministry on Sunday reported that over 140 people were killed and 400 were injured in Israeli strikes in the span of 24 hours.

“Over the past 24 hours the Israeli occupation has committed four mass murders of families in the Gaza Strip, 141 dead and 400 injured were taken to hospitals,” the ministry said in a statement

In eastern Rafah, the al-Qassam Brigades clashed directly with members of an Israeli special force, from point-blank range, using light weapons and individual shells, killing and wounding all of them.

The Brigades explained that its fighters were able to spot the Israeli force that had infiltrated disguised inside an aid truck, and clashed with it when it arrived at the project intersection in the area.

In turn, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, targeted the occupation soldiers who had penetrated the airport area, east of Rafah, with a barrage of mortar shells.

The Al-Quds Brigades also targeted the IOF and their vehicles stationed at the Rafah crossing gate and its surroundings, with several mortar shells.

Also, the regular 60mm mortar shells targeted the positions of the occupation soldiers in the areas of Al-Abd Jabr, Al-Tuma, and Al-Asi Tower, southwest of Yebna camp, west of Rafah.

As for the Netzarim axis, the brigades targeted the occupation command headquarters at the Abu Oreiban site, with Ababil explosive devices and heavy-caliber mortar shells.

The Al-Quds Brigades’ war media published footage documenting the targeting of the occupation’s Fajjah military site, and the positions of Israeli soldiers in Netzarim with rockets and mortar shells.

The Brigades also published another video showing the targeting of Israeli settlements and occupation gatherings with rocket barrages and mortar shells, in cooperation with the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the Ansar Brigades, and the Martyr Omar Al-Qassem Forces.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, for its part, targeted a gathering of IOF and their vehicles stationed around the Rafah crossing, with a barrage of 107mm rockets and heavy-caliber mortar shells.

It also targeted, with mortar shells, a concentration of Israeli forces and their military vehicles stationed on the Palestinian-Egyptian border, north of Rafah city. It also targeted the occupation forces in the east of the city.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade also carried out operations against the occupation in Netzarim, where it bombed a gathering of Israeli forces on the supply line with mortar shells, and the headquarters of the occupation army with two 107 mm rockets.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades published footage of its shelling of the occupation forces’ vehicles that had penetrated the eastern part of the central Gaza Strip with heavy mortar shells.

As for the Martyr Omar Al-Qassem Forces, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, they targeted IOF and their vehicles west of Rafah with mortar shells.

Palestinian martyrs in Israeli Al-Shati massacre rise to 22

The number of Palestinian martyrs in the massacre committed by the Israeli occupation army at the Al-Shati refugee camp has now risen to 22.

The IOF bombed the Al-Abyad Mosque in the camp during prayer hours, on Saturday, slaughtering many of the worshipers that had been praying there.

The crime came shortly after the al-Mawasi massacre, which led to the martyrdom and injury of over 400 Palestinians after the IOF struck the tent city in what was designated earlier as a “safe zone.” Israeli news website Maariv reported that the bombs used in the airstrikes were US-made JDAM bombs.

In another Israeli crime in Gaza today, our correspondent said that liberated Palestinian prisoner Nemr Hemadah, who was transferred to Gaza after his release, was among the martyrs in the Al-Shati Camp massacre.

After the al-Mawasi massacre on Saturday, “Israel” claimed to have killed a high-ranking al-Qassam commander in the area. However, it later retracted the confirmation after sources within the Resistance confirmed that Commander Muhammad al-Deif was alive and well.
