On the 153rd day of Al-Aqsa Flood Battle, the Palestinian Resistance factions persist in their military operations against the Israeli occupation forces across confrontation zones in the Gaza Strip.

Recent operations by the Resistance have been focused in the axis of the city of Hamad, northwest of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Strip.

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, announced Thursday that its fighters targeted three Israeli military vehicles using Tandem and RPG shells in Hamad city.

The Brigades added that its fighters ambushed occupation forces in the same area, detonating a booby-trapped building where the raiding forces were holed up, which resulted in casualties among the Israeli soldiers.

Despite the Israeli aggression ongoing for five months, the al-Quds Brigades' Resistance fighters were able to fire rockets toward "Sderot" and Gaza Envelope settlements in response to the Israeli occupation forces' crimes against the Palestinian people in the besieged Strip.

In the same context, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades targeted an assembly of Israeli occupation soldiers and their vehicles with 60mm mortar shells in the axis of the city of Hamad.

On their part, the National Resistance Brigades - Martyr Omar al-Qassem Forces, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), confirmed that its fighters detonated a powerful explosive device in one Israeli vehicle at the same axis.

Hamas' military wing, al-Qassam Brigades, announced that an Israeli force of more than 20 soldiers fell Wednesday into a well-planned ambush planned by its Resistance fighters.

Al-Qassam said its fighters detonated anti-personnel explosive devices against the raiding Israeli soldiers in an apartment in Hamad city, inflicting casualties among the force.

Earlier on Thursday, al-Quds Brigades announced that its fighters in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City targeted an assembly of Israeli occupation soldiers with mortar shells and ambushed an Israeli military convoy.

The Brigades released footage of its fighters targeting and destroying Israeli vehicles using explosive devices and RPG shells in the same neighborhood.

Amid the relentless Resistance operations, the Israeli occupation military continues to suffer human losses within its ranks.

Israeli media reported, on Thursday, that newly released figures show that dozens of brigade commanders, platoon commanders, and company commanders have been killed in battles in Gaza since October 7.

The data provided by Israeli media indicated that casualties included four brigade commanders, six deputy commanders, 39 platoon commanders, 13 company commanders, and two operations officers.

Israeli media also highlighted that seven additional reserve commanders are among the losses, emphasizing that the Israeli army is making strained efforts to fill leadership positions.

This comes shortly after IOF Chief of Staff Gen. Herzi Halevi  affirmed  that the Israeli army " paid a high price in the war on Gaza and lost commanders and fighters."

It is worth noting that the numbers given by "Israel" are vastly undercounted, as "Israel" has a long-established policy of not declaring its actual losses.
