The Palestinian resistance intensified its military operations over the weekend, carrying out a series of targeted attacks against Israeli occupation forces in both southern and northern areas of the Gaza Strip, as fierce confrontations continue amid the ongoing Israeli genocide.

On Sunday, the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, announced it had struck an Israeli military bulldozer of the D9 type with a Yassin-105 anti-armor projectile. The operation took place near the Yarmouk military site in the Al-Manara neighborhood, south of the city of Khan Younis. The strike reportedly occurred on Saturday and is part of the group's broader campaign to disrupt Israeli military maneuvers in the area.

In a separate statement, al-Qassam fighters confirmed they had killed two Israeli soldiers at point-blank range in a close-quarters engagement on al-Nazzaz Street, located in the eastern Gaza City neighborhood of al-Shujaiya. The incident occurred on June 3, 2025, highlighting the sustained presence and combat capability of Palestinian resistance forces even in areas under heavy Israeli pressure.

Adding to the escalation, the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of Islamic Jihad, released footage showing a deadly ambush on an Israeli unit that had taken cover inside a house previously rigged with explosives. The house, located in Tel al-Zaatar east of Jabalia in northern Gaza, was detonated using improvised explosive devices and reverse-engineered munitions, resulting in heavy casualties.

As the battlefronts stretch across multiple axes, the resistance continues to employ both conventional and asymmetrical tactics in its defense of the Gaza Strip.
