The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement (PIJ), reported Thursday that it downed an Israeli Quadcopter drone during its reconnaissance mission east of the central governorate of the Gaza Strip.

The brigade also announced targeting Israeli occupation soldiers with guided rockets, 107, while they were gathered in tents after successfully spotting them in the central area.

Moreover, the military media of the al-Quds Brigades confirmed that the group engaged in fierce confrontation with occupation soldiers, using machine guns and anti-tank missiles across the battlefronts in Khan Younis City, southern Gaza.

The National Resistance Brigades (also known as the Martyr Omar al-Qassem Forces), the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), announced launching a rocket barrage towards "Holit"; a settlement in the Gaza envelope.

As the Resistance operations continue, Israeli media acknowledges the number of Israeli occupation soldiers wounded since the beginning of the war as Yedioth Ahronoth reported that the IOF treated about 13,000 injured Israeli occupation soldiers since October 7, 2023, until today.

Meanwhile, the number of Israeli occupation soldiers killed have allegedly reached 654, including about 227 officers and soldiers killed since the start of the ground incursion into the Gaza Strip.

The IOF imposed a military cordon in the area, closed main roads, restricted the movement of citizens, and besieged the home of the martyr Hassan Qafisha; an apartment located on the third floor of a residential building consisting of several floors.

The occupation forces raided the martyr's home, where his family resides, and proceeded to demolish the house. The heroic martyr was involved in the tunnel checkpoint Resistance operation alongside martyrs Nasr and Abdul Qader al-Qawasmi whose homes were also demolished at the end of last month.

Moreover, earlier on February 8, it was announced that Muhammad Khalil Al-Barghouthi from the town of Kafr Ein, northwest of Ramallah, was martyred as a result of being shot by Israeli occupation forces during their raid on the town nearly two weeks ago.
