On the 177th day of the war, various Palestinian Resistance factions continue to confront Israeli occupation forces and their incursions into the Gaza Strip.

Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced that its fighters sniped and injured an Israeli soldier in the vicinity of the Al-Shifa Medical Complex in western Gaza City.

Al-Qassam fighters also attacked Israeli soldiers and military vehicles infiltrating the hospital perimeter with heavy-caliber mortar shells and engaged an Israeli Merkava tank with a homemade al-Yassin 105 shell west of Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, south of Gaza City.

The military media of al-Qassam Brigades reposted a video message by Chief of Staff Mohammad Deif on October 7, 2023, urging the Palestinian youths of the West Bank to resist the Israeli occupation with all means available.

In the same context, al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, confirmed that its fighters engaged in fierce confrontations with a special unit of the Israeli occupation army using machine guns.

Al-Quds Brigades said that its fighters monitored the Israeli unit and managed to lure it south of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.
