The Military Media of the al-Qassam Brigades published footage documenting its Resistance fighters sniping four Israeli occupation soldiers and officers in the northern Gaza Strip.

The Brigades said the operation was carried out using the locally manufactured "Ghoul" rifle and that it took place on al-Awda Street, east of Beit Hanoun.

The footage also showed al-Qassam fighters targeting Israeli military equipment with anti-armor shells.

Al-Qassam Brigades noted that these operations were part of the "Breaking the Sword" ambush.

On Friday, the group announced that its Resistance fighters had, on Thursday, successfully sniped four Israeli soldiers and officers on al-Awda Street, east of Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza, leaving them killed or wounded.

On the same day, Abu Obeida, the Brigades' spokesperson, affirmed that Palestinian Resistance fighters "continue to engage in heroic battles, carry out well-planned ambushes, and lie in wait for enemy forces" to inflict deadly losses on them.

He stressed that these operations are carried out “at the time, place, and method of the Resistance fighters' choosing,” adding that “their battlefield heroism—from Beit Hanoun to Rafah—is a source of pride, a military miracle, and a call to action for the youth and forces of the entire nation.”

Abu Obeida added that the fighters remain steadfast, fully prepared for confrontation through defensive ambushes and combat tactics, "bound by their oath to fight until victory or martyrdom.”

Details of the ambush

The al-Qassam Brigades carried out the complex "Breaking the Sword" ambush on April 19, 2025.

In detail, al-Qassam stated that its fighters targeted an Israeli military Storm vehicle, used by the Combat Intelligence Battalion of the Gaza Division, with an anti-tank shell, inflicting confirmed casualties.

When Israeli reinforcements arrived for rescue, they were ambushed with an anti-personnel explosive, leaving troops dead and wounded.

Al-Qassam also confirmed targeting a newly established Israeli military position in the ambush area with four RPG shells, followed by mortar fire, and the group’s military media released footage showing the attack on invading occupation vehicles near the al-Tuffah neighborhood east of Gaza City.

It is noteworthy that, as of April 25, 849 Israeli occupation soldiers have been killed since the start of the war on October 7, 2023, including 412 during "Israel's" ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, according to the Israeli military.
