The Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, announced that its fighters targeted the Israeli settlement of Netivot with two rockets, declaring the strike part of the ongoing response to the crimes of the Israeli regime against the Palestinian people.

The Israeli military admitted that two rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip toward Netivot, claiming that one was intercepted while the other landed in an open area. Earlier, Israeli media outlets reported that sirens were activated across the so-called "Gaza envelope" and into the western al-Naqab following the launches.

This latest operation comes as Gaza reels from one of the bloodiest weekends in recent weeks. At least 75 Palestinians were martyred within 48 hours: 62 killed on Saturday, including 15 waiting for humanitarian aid, and another 13 on Sunday, among them eight civilians sheltering in al-Farabi School and two children in a displacement tent in Gaza City. According to the Gaza Health Ministry, the overall toll of the ongoing war has now surpassed 64,000 martyrs and 162,000 wounded since October 2023, with over 20,000 children killed.

The strikes on Netivot also follow Hamas' September 6 reaffirmation of its commitment to the latest ceasefire proposal, which demands a permanent truce, a full withdrawal of occupation forces, unrestricted humanitarian aid, and a just prisoner exchange. While Palestinian factions continue to signal openness to serious negotiations through mediators, the Israeli government has escalated military operations instead, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisting on occupying Gaza City.

Despite the massacres, siege, and starvation campaign imposed on Gaza, the Palestinian resistance continues to strike at Israeli targets. Al-Quds Brigades and other factions have maintained operations both against occupation forces in incursion zones and against settlements in southern occupied Palestine. These actions highlight the inability of the Israeli regime to fulfill its repeated pledge to destroy or "crush" the resistance.

Humanitarian organizations have warned that "Israel's" campaign amounts to atrocity crimes and genocide. Save the Children has reported that at least one Palestinian child has been killed every hour on average over nearly 23 months of war. International legal experts note that even the plausible risk of genocide obliges states to act, while the International Court of Justice is currently reviewing whether Israel's actions in Gaza constitute genocide.

Yet the persistence of Palestinian resistance, exemplified by strikes such as the attack on Netivot, indicates that the occupation has failed to achieve its war aims and continues to face determined armed opposition.
