The ongoing Gaza war has allowed the Palestinian Resistance groups to take their cooperation to a whole new level.

Israel does not claim that it has destroyed any branches of the Palestinian Resistance in the Strip. Instead, the Israeli military spokesman claimed that they have ‘dismantled’ some of these units.

Even if these claims are true, it seems that the Palestinian Resistance has found a way to cope through the challenges they face in certain areas in Gaza: Joint military operations. 

In the past, Palestinian Resistance coordinated its actions through the Joint Operation Room. The ongoing Gaza war has allowed them to take this cooperation to a whole new level as was the case today in the vicinity of the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. 

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. 

Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas)

“In a joint operation, the fighters of Saraya Al-Quds and the Al-Qassam Brigades, with a barrage of mortar shells, bombed gatherings of Zionist enemy soldiers in the vicinity of the Al-Shifa Complex, west of Gaza City.

“Al-Qassam Brigades target a Zionist Merkava 4 tank with an Al-Yassin 105 shell, west of the Tal Al-Hawa neighborhood, south of Gaza City.

“Al-Qassam Brigades target a Zionist Merkava tank with an Al-Yassin 105 shell, west of the Tal Al-Hawa neighborhood, south of Gaza City.

“After their return from the combat lines, our fighters confirmed the detonation of a house that had been previously rigged with explosives against a Zionist infantry force, leaving its members dead and wounded.
