Three types of weapons were used, each one aimed at a different Israeli military vehicle.
This was part of a ‘tight ambush’ in Beit Lahia, which was announced by Al-Qassam Brigades on Friday.
An Al-Yassin-105 shell, a tandem shell, and a Shuath explosive device targeted and destroyed two Israeli Merkava-4 tanks and a D-9 military bulldozer respectively.
It is important to note that Beit Lahia is the northernmost Palestinian town, only a short distance away from the fence separating besieged Gaza from Israel. It was one of the first areas to supposedly be conquered by Israel at the beginning of the war. Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
