Since Israel declared its intention to move to the so-called third phase of the war on Gaza, Palestinian Resistance groups have begun shifting tactics: from defense to attack.
Al-Qassam Brigades have led the new guerilla warfare strategy by carrying out several daring operations, in Tel Al-Sultan, Zaytoun and Tel Al-Hawa, among other areas.
Today, Al-Quds Brigades, however, had a surprise attack of their own. According to the latest video by the group, its fighters carried out a raid targeting a large residential structure in Tel Al-Hawa, south of Gaza City.
An Israeli force had taken over the house, and had fortified its position there for quite some time. That ended today when a number of fighters advanced towards the house, armed with machine guns and TBG shells.
The daring operation showed the fighters engaging with Israeli soldiers on the first floor of the house, before firing a TBG shell, and then engaging with Israeli soldiers on the upper floors.
The video makes a reference to the screens of Israeli soldiers coming from inside the building, before finishing off with images of an Israeli helicopter rushing to the area.
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.
The information below also includes updates from Palestinian groups in the West Bank, which are currently battling invading Israeli forces in several towns and refugee camps, largely in the northern regions.
