The extent of the Resistance operations against invading Israeli troops ranged from Tal Al-Hawa to Khan Yunis.
These locations may not immediately sound significant but they are. Tal Al-Hawa is located southwest of Gaza City while Khan Yunis is located in southern Gaza.
The fact that today’s operations took place with the same degree of intensity in both the north and the south of Gaza indicates that all Israeli allegations of having any kind of operational control, anywhere in the Strip, are simply doubtful, if not outright falsified.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements below were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas)
“Al-Qassam Brigades target a Zionist Merkava tank with an Al-Yassin 105 shell west of Khan Yunis city in the southern Gaza Strip.
“Al-Qassam Brigades destroy a Zionist Merkava 4 tank with an Al-Yassin 105 shell southwest of Gaza City, causing it to catch fire.
