Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced that its Resistance fighters destroyed two Israeli tanks that had infiltrated southwest of Tal Al-Hawa using the Al-Yassin 105 anti-armor charges.

Al-Qassam also announced having destroyed an Israeli tank that had infiltrated northwest of Gaza City using the Al-Yassin 105 RPG.

Also, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, announced that their Resistance fighters were confronting an Israeli force that had infiltrated the Farahin area east of Khan Yunis and engaged them using appropriate weaponry.

Al-Qassam Brigades posted an image of the Al-Yasin 105 anti-armor charge on their Telegram channel, showing a burning Israeli tank in front of it, with the Quranic verse, "We softened the iron for him," in reference to the remarkable results achieved by these locally manufactured shells and the significant damage they inflict on Israeli tanks on the battlefield.

In the early hours of Sunday, the Al-Qassam Brigades confirmed the destruction of two Israeli vehicles that had infiltrated the same area, Farahin, using the Al-Yassin 105 charges.

Al-Qassam Brigades also noted that their fighters laid a well-prepared ambush for the infiltrating forces east of Khan Yunis after targeting them with Al-Yassin 105 charges, heavy sniper weapons, medium  weapons, and mortar shells, resulting in the destruction of two Israeli tanks. The fighters returned safely to their bases."

The Palestinian Resistance have been using tunnel warfare and their knowledge of the terrain to their advantage to put the invading Israeli forces through the wringer.

The IOF have been greatly suffering since they entered Gaza, with Israeli media announcing that thus far, 29 soldiers have been killed.

Regarding the targeting of soldiers and military vehicles, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth pointed out that the primary threat to the Israeli forces lies in the anti-tank weapons possessed by the Palestinian resistance.

Yossi Yehoshua, the newspaper's military affairs expert, emphasized that the use of anti-tank weapons by the Resistance exacts a high price on the IOF, in addition to other threats, including sniping and the use of IEDs.

Resistance deals consecutive blows to the IOF

Thermobaric rocket-propelled charges have seen more action as Resistance fighters target Israeli occupation forces positions who have taken residential buildings in the northern Gaza Strip as hiding places.

TBG-7 charges are intended to target infantry forces on the battlefield. Thermobaric charges are intended to disperse an amount of fuel in a limited area upon impact, that quickly ignites to form a scorching cloud of extreme heat and pressure. Such charges are much more energetic than other conventional explosives of equal weight.
