The al-Quds Brigades operation targeted Israeli military vehicles and soldiers, as well as homes where occupation forces had taken cover, engaging in direct confrontations at close range.

The commander of the operation reported that the Israeli soldiers showed no initiative or response, resorting only to screaming and fleeing without returning significant fire toward the Resistance fighters.

He added that the fighters encountered charred bodies of officers and soldiers, confirming that 40 Israeli soldiers were either killed or wounded, and stated that the occupation continues to lie and conceal its losses as it always does.
