The various military wings of the Palestinian resistance factions continue to confront the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in the Gaza Strip, intensifying their targeting of the so-called Netzarim axis established by the Israeli occupation forces in the northern-central area of the Gaza Strip.
Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, confirmed that it had targeted the headquarters of the IOF at the Abu Oreiban site in Netzarim with mortar shells.
In turn, the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades targeted the Israeli command and control rooms and a position of IOF troops and vehicles in Netzarim firing two 107-type rockets.
In a second operation in the same area, the Brigades targeted the IOF headquarters with several mortar shells.
Meanwhile, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades published footage documenting an operation it carried out Monday against the IOF in Netzarim, targeting its gatherings and its supply line with a barrage of 107-type rockets.

The Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), targeted an Israeli tank with an RPG shell in the vicinity of the Halal Market in the Brazil neighborhood, southeast of the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, and its fighters then returned from the battle lines.
In a joint operation, the Al-Quds Brigades and the Martyr Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, bombarded IOF soldiers and vehicles in the Yabna camp in Rafah with mortar shells.
Al-Saraya, Al-Aqsa Martyrs, and Al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, published scenes of their targeting of the occupation’s Kisufim military site with mortar shells, in a joint operation.

Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades released footage of a landmark operation conducted in Rafah on Sunday, where its anti-armor force hit and destroyed a heavily armored personnel carrier (APC).
The operation marks a landmark moment in the Resistance's confrontation with the Israeli invasion of Rafah, as it saw the first use of an anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) in the area.
Al-Qassam fighters monitored Israeli occupation forces (IOF) positioned at the Palestinian-Egyptian border on Sunday, before firing the missile and destroying a heavily armored personnel carrier.
The footage reveals that al-Qassam fighters utilized what its Military Media Unit dubbed the "Red Arrow," which is a variant of the Chinese-developed HJ-8 ATGM. As was seen in the attack, al-Qassam fighters monitored the position of an armored Israeli force, which included an Ofek APC, usually utilized for command and control purposes.
The APC is based on older versions of the Merkava main battle tank and is fitted with various communication equipment, stationed in a bridge that replaces the tank's 105 mm main gun and other offensive systems.
