Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
“The condition of the (Al-Qassam) Brigades on the ground in the field is very good,” a Hamas official said in an interview on Saturday.
“What the Resistance lost of its strength does not exceed 20% of its material capabilities, and in terms of human losses, it is much less than what the Israeli army announces,” the official told the New Arab.
The source said that “the main body of Al-Qassam Brigades in northern Gaza remains intact and cohesive, and the movement’s administrative structures in the northern Strip areas try as much as possible to alleviate the burden on the citizens there.”
These statements appeared at a time when the Resistance had announced that it carried out multiple operations against the Israeli army in the Strip.
