The Israeli occupation admitted on Sunday that an Israeli soldier died of previous wounds he sustained in the Gaza Strip. 

The recognition comes at a time when the Palestinian resistance is confronting the occupation's attempts to infiltrate east of Jabalia, north of the Gaza Strip.

The al-Qassam Brigades announced that its fighters fiercely confronted the Israeli occupation forces across several combat axes in northern Gaza, on Sunday. 

The al-Quds Brigades fighters, in cooperation with the al-Qassam Brigades, were able to snipe an Israeli soldier east of Beit Hanoun, in the northern region of the Gaza Strip.

For its part, the al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, in cooperation with the Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, targeted the enemy's command and control site in the Netzarim axis with heavy mortar shells.

A spokesperson for the occupation's forces announced that the 162nd Division has begun military operations in the Jabalia area, pointing to the full siege on the area. 

According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent, the IOF are initiating a ground incursion east of Jabalia amid fierce clashes with the resistance.

Our correspondent further clarified that the Resistance is engaged in fierce clashes with the occupation forces in the eastern axes of Jabalia and the Jabalia camp. Tal al-Zaatar and the vicinity of the Fadous area in Beit Lahia are also under heavy Israeli shelling.

Nowhere is safe

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Interior in Gaza called on residents not to move to the southern part of the Strip, but rather to relocate to the nearest neighboring residential area until the danger passes.

The Ministry of Interior affirmed that the occupation's claims of "safe areas in the southern part of the Strip are false, noting that all governorates of the Strip are being targeted, as the occupation commits massacres in all areas without exception, including in the tents of displaced people."

The Israeli occupation paved the way for its northern incursion by launching more than 50 airstrikes on various areas in the region during the night. These strikes targeted many inhabited homes, as well as the Jabalia Club, which shelters thousands of displaced people, and service facilities, resulting in the deaths of dozens of martyrs and injuries.

The eastern and western areas of northern Gaza witnessed intense Israeli bombardment, the heaviest in five months, targeting inhabited homes.

Amid the relentless bombardment, the IOF targeted and murdered Palestinian journalist Hassan Hamad, who was only 20 years old.

Another school massacre

Local media reported that the occupation continues to besiege dozens of families inside homes and schools sheltering displaced people, following the incursion of occupation vehicles in areas east of the Jabalia camp.

They also added that Quadcopter drones are firing at the surroundings of homes in the Jabalia camp in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

Additionally, the occupation committed two massacres after bombing the Ibn Rushd school, which shelters displaced people in the al-Zawaida area in the central part of the Strip.
