Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, publishes footage of its fighters engaging Israeli soldiers and trapping them in death ambushes orchestrated by its militants.

The scenes included the targeting by the brigades of Israeli occupation forces inside a fortified house in the area of Juhr al-Dik, east of central Gaza.

Meanwhile, al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), said they shelled the settlement of "Tel Aviv" with a barrage of rockets in response to Israeli massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip.

Al-Quds Brigades shared footage of its confrontations with Israeli soldiers and the targeting of Israeli military vehicles.

The Palestinian Resistance, moreover, announced that it bombed the Israeli "Raim", "Nir Oz", and "Mevtahim" in the Gaza envelope. At least nine Israeli tanks, three infantry fighting vehicles, and one military vehicle were targeted on several axes.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Israeli occupation forces admitted that at least two soldiers were killed, including an officer in the Givati Brigade, which raised the number of dead Israeli soldiers to 389 since earlier October.

The two soldiers were from Givati Brigade’s Reconnaissance Battalion and Rotem Battalion.

The Israeli military also reported that two reservists and three other soldiers sustained severe injuries in combat.

Underreporting numbers?

It is worth noting that the numbers given by Hezbollah and al-Qassam Brigades surpass the "officially" declared count of Israeli soldiers killed in the operations, as "Israel" has a long-established policy of not declaring its actual losses. "Israel" has reported six soldiers and one settler killed on the Lebanese border, while Hezbollah affirmed on November 1 that at least 120 IOF soldiers were killed or wounded in action north of occupied Palestine since October 7.

Hamas repeatedly challenges "Israel" to disclose the actual number of its casualties.

For example, al-Qassam Brigades Resistance fighters successfully targeted on Monday 60 Israeli military vehicles of various types and confronted the invading forces in several axes across Gaza, the group's spokesperson Abu Obeida said.

In an audio recording, Abu Obeida revealed that these military vehicles were targeted in the axes of southern al-Zaytoun neighborhood, the Sheikh Radwan and al-Tawam neighborhoods west of Jabalia camp, as well as in Beit Lahia. Three of the vehicles were armored personnel carriers, he added.

Most of these vehicles, he explained, were hit by al-Yassin 105 shells, in addition to homegrown anti-tank IEDs, shrapnel bombs, and Tandem 85 shells.

The Brigades spokesperson emphasized that the group's Resistance fighters are still "engaged in fierce confrontations on all axes" and have carried out several specialized operations against Israeli forces along axes they are advancing in, resulting in direct casualties among occupation soldiers.

Moreover, Abu Obeida revealed that al-Qassam Brigades carried out a significant operation on Saturday; an ambush against Israeli infantry forces southwest of Gaza City, during which Resistance fighters targeted a ground combat force with anti-personnel explosive devices, causing confirmed casualties.
