In addition, the Al-Qassam Brigades, in coordination with the Al-Nasser Brigades, successfully fired a SAM missile at an Israeli Apache helicopter flying over the Al-Bureij camp in central Gaza. The Israeli military later reported an attempted interception of the missile launched from central Gaza toward Kibbutz Be’eri, located near Gaza’s border, but stated that it was still investigating the results of the attempt.
The Israeli Army also stated that it had detected and responded to missile launches from northern Gaza, one of which fell near Kibbutz Nir Am, while the other landed in an open area. Additionally, Israeli sources reported that alarm sirens were triggered in the Gaza envelope following the missile attack on the Apache helicopter.
On Thursday, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), announced a rocket attack on the Israeli settlement of Khuza’a, south of Israel.
