In this context, al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, confirmed that its fighters targeted the settlements of "Ashkelon", "Sderot", and "Nir Am", as well as other Gaza Envelope settlements with rocket barrages.
Al-Quds Brigades said its Resistance fighters engaged a special Israeli force entrenched in a building in Khan Younis with an armor-piercing shell and hit a tank with a Barq-type explosive device at the same location.
The Brigades' fighters also downed an Israeli reconnaissance drone and captured it.
In addition, al-Quds Brigades' Resistance fighters attacked Israeli military gatherings with a barrage of 60mm mortar shells in the vicinity of the al-Amal Hospital and the al-Arayshiya area on the western outskirts of Khan Younis.
Using mortar shells, al-Quds Brigades also targeted the "Kfar Aza" settlement, in the Gaza Envelope, and the "Netivot" settlement and its surroundings in the western al-Naqab.
On its part, al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced that its fighters engaged an Israeli Merkava 4 tank with an al-Yassin 105 shell east of Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip.
