The fighters of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement (PIJ)'s military wing, al-Quds Brigades, engaged in urban warfare with the Israeli occupation forces in Gaza, killing dozens of Israeli soldiers and wounding hundreds of others, spokesperson Abu Hamza said Tuesday.

The Palestinian Resistance faction shelled several occupied Palestinian cities and military assembly points with mortars, according to the spokesperson.

"We will not surrender; we will not wave the white banner no matter how long the battle drags on," Abu Hamza said. "The battle today is no longer a matter of ending the Resistance or freeing the captives, it is a matter of reckoning with the Palestinian people and their Resistance."

Abu Hamza went on to underline that the Israeli occupation's bombing of civilians was an act carried out by "cowardly elders that are suffering major defeats at the hands of those steadfast on their land."

The military spokesperson went on to underline that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu knows his sealed fate in the wake of the war, calling on the families of the Israeli captives taken by the Resistance to hold him accountable as he drags the war on as the fate of the captives is in his hands.

The captives will either die "due to the Zionist bombardment or return through mediated negotiations that would only be upheld if they include a permanent ceasefire."

The Palestinian Resistance is engaged in an open war with the Zionist-American occupation as it defends the al-Aqsa Mosque instead on the part of the billion-strong Islamic World, he said, though he hailed the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon and Iraq.

The US Department of Defense has stated that the rate of attacks against the US military in Iraq and Syria has increased by 45% in the last three weeks.

The sources mentioned that the attack included the al-Omar and Conoco bases in the countryside of Deir Ezzor, in addition to the Kharab al-Jir and al-Shadadi bases in the countryside of al-Hasakah.

Resistance factions in Iraq have previously said they consider US occupation bases in the region as legitimate targets, as the US has offered "Israel" its "unwavering support", enabling it to carry out its massacres against the Palestinian people, by offering it the necessary military, financial, and diplomatic backing.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, meanwhile, announced Tuesday that its forces attacked several Israeli military sites, dealing paramount damages and inflicting major material casualties and fatalities.

Hezbollah once again underlined that its forces were carrying out their attacks on the Israeli occupation forces in support of the Resistance in Gaza as the Israeli occupation continues its onslaught against the Palestinian people.

Yemen unwavering in support of Palestine

Abu Hamza also lauded the "free Yemeni people that proved to everyone their support of Allah, Islam, Jihad, and Palestine."

Responding to the calls of the Yemeni people and the directives of Ansar Allah's leader, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, the Yemeni Armed Forces expanded their pool of targets to include all ships heading to Israeli ports passing through the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea. 

Earlier on Tuesday, the spokesperson for the YAF, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, confirmed that the YAF's Navy had targeted a Norweigian-flagged oil tanker with an anti-ship missile.

The Strinda was en route to an Israeli port in occupied Palestine, a destination that prompted the YAF to take action and strike the vessel. This came after the YAF's numerous warnings were issued to its disregarding crew.

"In support of our Palestinian people, amid their grave plight, who are currently facing death, destruction, and siege in the Gaza Strip, and in response to the calls of the free people of Yemen and the free people of our Ummah, the naval forces have executed a top-tier military operation against the Norwegian 'Strinda' ship," Saree announced.

Reiterating the YAF's previous announcements, Saree said, "The Yemeni armed forces will not hesitate to target any ship that violates the directions in previous statements," he stressed.
