An Israeli policeman was killed, and five others were injured on Tuesday in a shooting operation at two locations in Ashdod, southern occupied Palestine.

Israeli media reported that the operation began in the Nir Galim area, and then moved to an area near the Yavne Interchange, north of Ashdod.

A circulating video shows footage of the site of the shooting targeting Israeli officers on Route 4 in Ashdod.

The Palestinian who carried out the operation was shot and killed by Israeli occupation forces, as per Israeli media.

Israeli media reported that police deployed additional forces to the area.

"Israel's" emergency service Magen David Adom confirmed in a statement that five Israelis were injured in the attack, with one Israeli policeman killed.

A few days earlier, Israeli media reported that the Israeli occupation's Hillel Yaffe Hospital in the Palestinian city of Hadera announced the death of Rabbi Rafael Mordechai Fischhof, who was seriously wounded last Wednesday, after he and five Israelis were injured in a stabbing operation in Hadera, north of Tel Aviv.

Palestinian Resistance Committees hail the operation

Palestinian Resistance Committees praised the "heroic" shooting near Yavne Junction, east of occupied Ashdod, stating that it was a response to Israeli crimes.

They added that the Ashdod operation sent a clear message to the Israeli public, demonstrating the Resistance's capability to "strike deep into the strategic areas of the Zionist entity."

The committees urged "all free Palestinians to escalate Resistance and revolution, carry out heroic operations, and shatter the enemy’s illusions and failed bets, in retaliation for the bloodshed of Palestinians and Lebanese."

West Bank Resistance showing 'bolder, more sophisticated' attacks: NYT

Confrontations have escalated in the occupied West Bank, with Palestinian Resistance fighters launching "bolder and more sophisticated" attacks amid increased Israeli military raids in the area, The New York Times reported last week.

This comes after the Israeli military recently ended a major 10-day aggression on the West Bank that targeted the governorates of Tulkarm, Jenin, and Tubas, killing 39 Palestinians and injuring approximately 150 others. The offensive was met by the Palestinian Resistance with Operation Terror of the Camps.

The report cited the bombing operation in Tel Aviv, jointly claimed by both Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), as well as the shooting near the Tarqumiyah checkpoint in al-Khalil, which resulted in the killing of three Israeli police officers. Additionally, it pointed to the recent shooting at the Allenby Bridge crossing, known on the Palestinian side as the Karameh Border Crossing, between Jordan and the occupied West Bank, which killed three Israeli security personnel.

According to the newspaper, citing analysts, the latest operations constitute "the most complex sequence of attacks relating to the volatile West Bank in years."

Also commenting on the situation in the West Bank, Michael Milshtein, an Israeli analyst of Palestinian affairs, suggested that amid ongoing wars in Gaza and along the border with Lebanon, "We are on the path to a third front."
