Palestinian resistance fighters carried out a series of bold and strategic operations across the Gaza Strip, inflicting significant losses on Israeli occupation forces, according to statements from various Palestinian resistance factions.
The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced on Monday the successful liberation of kidnapped Palestinians held by Israeli forces during a military operation in Beit Lahia, north of Gaza.
According to the statement, al-Qassam fighters confronted and eliminated three Israeli soldiers involved in fortifying a building where civilians were being held captive. The operation included storming the house, neutralizing the occupying forces, seizing their weapons, and freeing several captives.
In another significant development, the al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, affiliated with the Popular Resistance Committees, released footage of a joint operation targeting an Israeli command and control site in the Netzarim Axis. The attack, conducted with the Martyr Omar al-Qassem Brigades, utilized heavy mortar shells to strike the site effectively.
Meanwhile, the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, reported the capture of an Israeli reconnaissance drone near the al-Nuseirat Refugee Camp in central Gaza. They also carried out a martyrdom operation, targeting an Israeli armored personnel carrier and detonating a bomb inside it near the al-Return Towers in northern Gaza.
Al-Qassam Brigades have reintroduced martyrdom operations into their strategic repertoire amid escalating hostilities. On Sunday, one of their fighters disguised in Israeli military attire executed a complex operation in the Jabalia refugee camp. The fighter eliminated a sniper team, seized their equipment, and later infiltrated an Israeli force, detonating an explosive belt and inflicting heavy casualties.
This was the third such operation since the onset of the current conflict, demonstrating the evolving tactics of Palestinian resistance. The brigades emphasized their commitment to countering Israeli aggression and defending Gaza's sovereignty.
The resurgence of resistance operations underscores the determination of Palestinian factions to resist Israeli incursions and safeguard their people. As Gaza endures relentless bombardment and military campaigns, the Palestinian resistance continues to adapt and respond, rallying around a shared goal of liberation and self-determination.
The operations reflect the resilience and unity of the Palestinian people in the face of ongoing occupation and aggression, highlighting the continued struggle for justice and sovereignty in Gaza and beyond. (ILKHA)
