The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced targeting an Israeli military bulldozer of type D9 with an al-Yassin 64/105 mm tandem rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) in Tal al-Hawa, southwest of Gaza City.

Al-Qassam snipers shot an Israeli officer in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, prompting the Israeli occupation military to later confirm the killing of an officer in the Shaldag Unit. The spokesperson for the Israeli occupation forces announced that an officer serving under the Israeli Air Forces' Shaldag Unit was killed on Wednesday in the northern Gaza Strip.

This raises the number of Israeli troops announced dead today to four, including two officers. Additionally, at least five Israeli soldiers were injured by the Resistance in the Gaza Strip.

Furthermore, Al-Qassam Brigades said its Resistance fighters destroyed an Israeli Merkava 4 tank with an al-Yassin shell southwest of Gaza City and targeted another west of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

Al-Qassam's mortar units also targeted Israeli military gatherings advancing into the northern Gaza Strip.

On its part, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, confirmed its fighters engaged in fierce confrontations using machine guns and anti-tank missiles with Israeli occupation soldiers and their vehicles in the al-Sabra axis and Tal al-Hawa.

Al-Quds Brigades said its Resistance fighters targeted Israeli military gatherings and vehicles with mortar shells and Badr 1 and 107 rockets in the eastern, southern, and western axes of Khan Younis city.

The Brigades' fighters targeted a group of Israeli occupation soldiers fortified in a building with a 107 rocket in the northwestern axis of the central Gaza Strip.

Additionally, the Resistance fighters targeted occupation soldiers and military vehicles with mortar shells in the eastern axis of the al-Bureij camp.

The martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), confirmed that its artillery units targeted Israeli occupation military vehicles and troops with mortar shells in Khan Younis, while the al-Mujahideen Brigades shelled the Israeli military command headquarters and the helipad in "Re'im" with a number of rockets.
