The spokesperson for the Israeli occupation forces confirmed that two sergeants were killed during battles in the northern Gaza Strip while two others were injured.

The Israeli occupation has launched a wider-scale invasion of the Gaza Strip as confrontations concentrate across the northern and northeastern parts of the Strip.

Palestinian Resistance fighters utilized locally produced tandem rocket-propelled charges, anti-tank guided missiles, mortar shells, and improvised explosive devices to target and destroy  Israeli armored vehicles as well as infantry forces.

Al-Qassam Brigades had previously announced that its fighters used al-Yassin rocket-propelled grenades to target occupation armored vehicles, including Merkava tanks during Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, dealing direct and lethal hits to tanks positioned outside the Gaza Strip.

The locally produced charges marked a significant development in the Resistance's ability to proliferate anti-tank weapons. The projectile can be produced at a cheaper price when compared to anti-tank guided missiles and has proven its effectiveness from close range, as it can be fired via a shoulder-held rocket launcher or released from a vertical position from a drone.

Al-Yassin launchers were heavily deployed during the Resistance's confrontation with invading forces on Tuesday. Fighters engaged occupation forces from close range dealing heavy casualties to the Israeli war machine.

  • The Brigades also utilized an Explosively Formed Penetrator (EFP) mines to destroy an armored vehicle to the east of Hay al-Zeitoun.
  • In its final statement, the group announced that its fighters destroyed three armored vehicles in the east of Gaza City as well as a fourth vehicle that came to the rescue of the force.

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad's, al-Quds Brigades, announced that its forces targeted an armored and an infantry force in Hay al-Zeitoun as well as armored vehicles in al-Atatra with mortar shells.

While al-Mujahideen Brigades revealed that its fighters were able to foil an Israeli amphibious force from completing a beach landing to the northwest of Gaza City, forcing it to withdraw.
