The Israeli occupation army confirmed the killing of a combat engineering soldier of the Northern Brigade in the battles in northern Gaza.

Sgt. Yair Eliyahou, 19, from the settlement of Ezer, a Combat Engineering soldier in the Northern Brigade, was killed overnight, the IOF announced, claiming a combat-related operational accident in the northern Gaza Strip.

The circumstances of the incident are under investigation, the military said.

In addition, Israeli media reported that two soldiers from the Golani Brigade were killed after their tank was struck by an anti-tank rocket in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

In related developments, Israeli media reported four “security incidents” had occurred in the Gaza Strip since this morning, including one in Khan Younis and two in Beit Hanoun, while the fourth is reportedly still under investigation.

An Israeli media platform also reported a "difficult incident" that took five hours to resolve, though no further details were disclosed amid a continuing media blackout on battlefield developments.

Resistance shells IOF groupings

Meanwhile, the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced the shelling of groupings of Israeli occupation forces in the al-Satar area north of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, with mortar shells.

Concurrently, Israeli media reported a "very tough incident" in Khan Younis, noting heavy fire from Israeli helicopters, coinciding with intense artillery shelling in the area.

The al-Qassam Brigades had previously announced the shelling of the settlements of Nir Yitzhak and Miftahim with a salvo of Q20 rockets north of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

Moreover, the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, announced that its Resistance fighters had shelled a gathering of occupation soldiers and vehicles near Street 5 in northern Khan Younis with heavy mortar fire.

The group also said its fighters have captured an Israeli EVO MAX drone while it was conducting intelligence missions over Khan Younis.

This comes as the Palestinian Resistance in the Gaza Strip continues to confront Israeli incursions, engaging in clashes and ambushing Israeli soldiers and vehicles, causing casualties.

Intensifying operations

Just yesterday, Palestinian Resistance factions in Gaza announced multiple successful operations targeting Israeli vehicles in the Strip, confirming casualties among the Israeli occupation forces.

The al-Quds Brigades reported that it targeted an Israeli occupation army command and control headquarters near the Khadra Mosque, north of Khan Younis, with a 107-type rocket, achieving a direct hit.

In a joint operation with the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades (the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine), the al-Quds Brigades also shelled Israeli occupation forces stationed on al-Badaw Street in the western al-Satar area, north of Khan Younis, with a barrage of mortar shells.

Meanwhile, the al-Qassam Brigades announced targeting an Israeli troop carrier with a Yassin 105 shell on al-Mujamma al-Islami Street in the city of Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian Resistance faction also stated that during the attack, they saw the military vehicle catch fire and a helicopter land to evacuate casualties, noting that the incident occurred around noon on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades destroyed an Israeli military vehicle using a highly explosive Asif 3 device in the town of al-Qarara, north of Khan Younis.

As part of the ongoing Al-Aqsa Flood Operation, Palestinian Resistance fighters persist in attacking Israeli forces operating inside the Gaza Strip, causing Israeli military casualties with both killed and wounded soldiers.
