Palestinian Resistance factions continue to confront the Israeli occupation forces in the Gaza Strip, marking the 324th day of the Operation al-Aqsa Flood with fierce confrontations.

An Al Mayadeen correspondent reported that intense confrontations took place between the Resistance and the Israeli occupation forces in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood of eastern Gaza City. Similar confrontations were reported in the eastern areas of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, where the Resistance reportedly inflicted heavy casualties on Israeli forces.

In the southern Gaza Strip, violent confrontations were also heard in the al-Zanna and Abasan al-Jadidah areas, east of Khan Younis, according to the correspondent.

Among the operations claimed by the Resistance, the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement (PIJ), detonated a pre-planted explosive device targeting an advancing Israeli military vehicle near al-Furqan School in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood.

Meanwhile, Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades launched heavy mortar shells at Israeli forces and their equipment in the Netzarim axis, southwest of Gaza City.

Additionally, the martyr Omar al-Qassem Forces, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), targeted Israeli soldiers and their equipment near the Bahloul building in the Brazil neighborhood of Rafah, southern Gaza, using mortar shells.

Israeli losses mounting

The Israeli occupation forces confirmed Sunday the death of a soldier and the serious injury of another during battles in the southern Gaza Strip, according to a statement released on Sunday.

A Staff Sergeant from the 202nd Battalion in the Paratroopers Brigade died in confrontations in the southern part of the Gaza Strip. In a separate incident, a soldier from the engineering battalion sustained severe injuries.

This latest death raises the weekend death toll among Israeli soldiers in Gaza to five. On Saturday, the IOF acknowledged under the "permitted for publication" clause that three soldiers were killed in battles in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, located in the southeastern area of Gaza City. 

Two sergeants of the 6130th Reconnaissance Battalion of the 16th Brigade were killed in a blast in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, while a sergeant in the 8119th Battalion suffered injuries.

Seven other soldiers who were with the latter suffered injuries, with four in critical condition.

Since the beginning of the war on Gaza, the confirmed death toll among Israeli soldiers in the Gaza Strip has reached 700. Although Israeli media reports suggest that the actual number is significantly higher, the figure is revised down due to Israeli censorship laws.
