Air raid sirens sounded Wednesday evening across Askalan and several Gaza-enclosed settlements, following a fresh wave of Palestinian Resistance rocket fire.

According to Israeli media, three rockets were launched from northern Gaza shortly after the initial siren alerts, setting off a second round of alarms in the northern Gaza envelope. The strikes reportedly targeted an IOF tank gathering stationed along the perimeter fence north of the besieged Strip.

Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that the barrage was launched at the occupied cities of Isdud [Ashdod] and Askalan. The group confirmed the operation was "in response to the Zionist massacres against our Palestinian people."

The renewed Resistance response comes just hours after the Israeli occupation forces confirmed the death of a First Sergeant and the injury of another soldier in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, earlier Wednesday.

IOF deaths mounting 

On Tuesday, the Israeli occupation military acknowledged the death of one of its soldiers during ongoing confrontations in northern Gaza. 

Around a week and a half prior, additional Israeli soldiers were reportedly killed in separate operations by the Palestinian Resistance.

According to the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation, one soldier was killed at the time during confrontations in the al-Janina neighborhood of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. He was reportedly struck when an RPG hit a building during the confrontations. Two other soldiers were injured in the same incident.

In the same area, another soldier from the Golani Brigade was killed when an explosive device detonated beneath a tank from the 188th Brigade, wounding the entire crew.

Additionally, a Reserve Sergeant First Class was killed in an operational traffic accident near Nahal Oz along the Gaza border. The soldier was reportedly struck by a truck during an engineering mission. The exact circumstances remain under investigation.
