Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' armed wing, announced that it launched salvoes of rockets toward the Israeli occupation's Ben Gurion Airport situated at the heart of "Tel Aviv".

The shelling of the vital Israeli airport comes in response to the repeated targeting of Palestinian civilians at the hands of the Israeli occupation in Gaza.

There have been no reports of any casualties thus far, though an Al Mayadeen correspondent said he did not see any Iron Dome anti-air missiles intercepting the barrage of rockets.

The Al-Qassam Brigades also launched a large-scale rocket strike on the occupied city of Askalan, with at least 100 missiles being launched toward it in response to the Israeli occupation shelling residential buildings.

Al-Quds brigades spokesperson Abu Hamza said the Resistance - as part of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood - launched a large barrage of rockets toward "Tel Aviv".

Footage showed the Al-Quds Brigades bombing sensitive military sites in the Gaza envelope settlements using with Sayyad suicide drones.

Earlier today, Hamas leader Osama Hamdan confirmed to Al Mayadeen that Operation Al-Aqsa Flood is still proceeding as planned by the Qassam Brigades leadership highlighting major achievements revealed for the first time.

Hamdan said that the Resistance took advantage of all the information retrieved following the takeover of the “Erez” outpost liberating Palestinian territories.

Among the documents were those denoting the names of Israeli agents in Gaza and across Palestine as well as plans laid out by the Israeli occupation.

The Hamas leader said that “there are more than 7 points where Resistance fighters confronted the [Israeli] occupation forces based on the instructions of the Resistance leadership.”

Hamdan continued by saying "We are moving towards the West Bank" hoping to ignite all arenas in the face of the occupation noting that "the chances of that are great," given that "the security coordination project will not have high chances in the West Bank."

Regarding the options of the Israeli occupation government, Hamdan said that it must search for a deal with the resistance regarding the prisoners’ issue, and he continued that the image of “Israel” before the world has reappeared as it is, as an occupying and abnormal entity in the region.

Hamdan further pointed to the possibility of liberating Palestine starting from the Operation Al-Aqsa Flood which demonstrated the fragility of the Israeli occupation forces emphasizing that the operation proved that the Palestinian cause still extends from the river to the sea.
