Tal al-Zaatar battles

In Tal al-Zaatar in north Gaza, the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, targeted an Israeli tank with a sticky explosive device and detonated an anti-infantry mine against a group of occupation soldiers in the vicinity of the Omar Bin al-Khattab mosque. 

In the same area, Al-Qassam resistance fighters engaged a special Israeli force stationed inside a house, with a TBG anti-armor shell, confirming casualties between killed and wounded. 

The Brigades also engaged five Israeli occupation soldiers with a hand grenade at point zero in the vicinity of the Omar Bin al-Khattab mosque, and detonated an explosive device against a number of occupation soldiers, confirming casualties between killed and wounded in the vicinity of al-Bashir mosque in Tal al-Zaatar.

At the same time, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades underwent fierce confrontations, using machine guns and RPGs, against Israeli occupation forces in the vicinity of the Omar Bin al-Khattab mosque, achieving direct hits. 

Jabalia

In northern Jabalia, Al-Qassam fighters engaged three Israeli Merkava tanks using al-Yassin 105 shells. 

They also detonated an anti-infantry mine against an Israeli infantry force, killing and wounding its soldiers, in the center of the Jabalia camp in north Gaza. 

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs fighters, in the same area, targeted an Israeli Merkava using an anti-armor charge, achieving a direct hit.

Moreover, Israeli soldier and vehicle gatherings were also targeted by the Al-Aqsa resistance fighters in the northern part of the Jabalia camp, using barrages of mortar shells. 

Israeli positions under heavy attack

In southernmost Gaza, the Al-Qassam Brigades pounded Israeli occupation command headquarters using mortar shells.

In turn, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, targeted an Israeli gathering of soldiers and vehicles in the vicinity of the Qasarya school in Juhr al-Dik using heavy mortar shells. 

Consequently, the Brigades monitored an Israeli helicopter retrieving the bodies of killed and wounded soldiers from the location of the attack. 

In Rafah, Al-Quds fighters targeted Israeli soldiers and their vehicles using heavy mortar shells. 

Amid the intense battles, an Israeli Telegram channel reported, citing the spokesperson of the Israeli occupation military, that two soldiers had been seriously wounded in southern Gaza.
