In a series of coordinated attacks, Palestinian Resistance factions targeted Israeli forces and military positions across northern Gaza, inflicting significant damage on the equipment and personnel of the invading forces.
The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, successfully destroyed an Israeli Merkava tank east of Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza using a powerful explosive device. A second tank was hit with an Al-Yassin-105 anti-tank rocket-propelled grenade near the Shadia School, west of the camp.
The al-Qassam Brigades’ military media released footage documenting the ambush of Israeli special forces, who were lured into a pre-rigged house near the Safatawi junction, west of Jabalia.
Meanwhile, al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, eliminated an Israeli infantry unit in a close-quarters firefight in the Abu Sharar area, in the heart of the Jabalia refugee camp.
The group’s military media shared video footage showing the destruction of Israeli soldiers and equipment, alongside rocket strikes on the Israeli settlements of Sderot and Nir Am in the Gaza envelope.
In a show of unity among Palestinian Resistance factions, the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), and the al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, launched coordinated mortar attacks on two Israeli command and control centers.
