An Al Mayadeen correspondent in Gaza reported that the Palestinian Resistance is engaged in fierce confrontations against the Israeli occupation forces in the al-Bura area east of Beit Hanoun, north of the Gaza Strip.

Likewise, the Resistance is engaged in confrontations at the al-Alam roundabout in the center of Bani Suheila, east of Khan Younis Governorate in southern Gaza.

As the confrontations intensified, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported that the occupation forces withdrew from the al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis after an Israeli raid that lasted several hours.

Al-Qassam Brigades

Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, said its Resistance fighters bombarded the occupying forces entrenched in the vicinity of al-Shifa  Medical Center west of Gaza City with mortar shells.

In the vicinity of al-Shifa Medical Center, the Qassam Brigades reported that their resistance fighters were able to target a group of Israeli occupation soldiers who had fortified themselves inside a building with a TBG anti-fortification shell, causing several casualties among them.

They also targeted an Israeli military vehicle with a Yassin-105 anti-tank shell.

The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement (PIJ), announced that its Resistance fighters in the engineering unit were working on reusing the dismantled Israeli explosive devices and adhesive explosives to be reused against the invading soldiers and their military vehicles.

The PIJ's military wing said in a statement that their resistance fighters in the engineering unit were able to dismantle explosive devices that the occupation had planted in a house in the vicinity of the al-Shifa Medical Complex.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades

The al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades announced that their fighters engaged in continuous and fierce confrontations against the occupation forces using machine guns and RPG shells on the axis of advance in the al-Bura area, east of Beit Hanoun.

They also said that their resistance fighters shelled an Israeli assembly point, inflicting material and human losses on the IOF after they struck them with mortar shells in the vicinity of al-Shifa Medical Complex.

DFLP

The National Resistance Battalions - Omar al-Qassem Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), confirmed that its fighters engaged in violent confrontations against the occupation forces on al-Wahda Street and the outskirts of al-Shati Camp in Gaza City, which saw them detonating a high payload explosive device in an Israeli vehicle.

They also fired an RPG shell at an advancing Israeli unit in the al-Baraka area south of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.

Israeli news outlet Walla! said Saturday that the Israeli occupation forces find themselves uncertain and without a clear strategy for Gaza as it is mired in there for the fifth month straight.

The Hamas Resistance movement is actively rebuilding its capabilities in areas recently vacated by the Israeli occupation forces, Walla! underlined, highlighting that "Israel" had no control over this issue.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears immobilized by internal political dynamics, Walla! columnist Ben Caspit said. According to sources, Netanyahu's decision-making capacity is hampered by the influence of far-right politicians Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, leaving the government paralyzed in its response to the ongoing crisis faced by the IOF in Gaza.

Analysts argue against pursuing an invasion of Rafah, asserting that any gains made would be negligible compared to the strategic significance of Khan Younis, where Hamas maintains a stronghold.

Criticism is mounting against Netanyahu, with some attributing the occupation's current predicament to his leadership, such as Israeli Yedioth Ahronoth journalist Ben-Dror Yemini.
