In new footage, first aired by Al-Jazeera Arabic channel, Al-Qassam revealed its most complex military operation since the start of the Israel war on Gaza.
The Beit Hanoun ambush was carried out by Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas on May 22, the group said.
According to Al-Qassam, the ambush was carried out in three different phases, and “lasted 26 hours continuously.” It included detonating IEDs, the throwing of grenades and the sniping of several soldiers.”
“Enemy forces advanced towards Beit Hanoun according to the previously anticipated route,” the group said, adding, “We expected troops to come to the same tunnel that we used to carry out the ambush, so the Mujahideen booby-trapped it.”
“After this operation, the enemy evacuated all its forces from the axis of advance and withdrew into our occupied territories.”
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.
