The Palestinian Resistance launched two rockets today, Friday, from the northern Gaza Strip, toward the occupied coastal city of Askalan as "Israel" resumed its genocidal campaign on Gaza, killing hundreds of civilian Palestinians.

Taking credit for the operation, the Al-Qassam Brigades announced the bombing of Askalan with a barrage of rockets in response to the Israeli massacres against civilians.

Israeli occupation forces confirmed that warning sirens sounded on Friday in the city, while videos and photos circulated on social media showed the state of panic that took over settlers who stopped their cars in the streets following the rocket launch from Gaza.

This marks the second day that the Palestinian Resistance launched rockets toward occupied territories in response to "Israel" restarting its war on Gaza, with the al-Qassam Brigades announcing yesterday a barrage of "Moqadama M90" rockets targeting Tel Aviv in retaliation for the massacres committed by the occupation against civilians in the Gaza Strip.

 Israeli occupation forces admitted to tracking three rockets fired from Gaza toward central occupied Palestine, prompting alarm sirens in Tel Aviv, Gush Dan, and nearby settlements.

'Israel to act with a force never seen before'

“For Gazans, this is the latest warning ... The air force attacks on Hamas were only the first step. What comes next will be much harder, and you will have to pay the price in full. The evacuation of the population from the war zones will soon begin again. If all kidnapped Israelis are not released and Hamas is not forced out of the Gaza Strip, Israel will act with a force you have never seen before,” Katz said in a direct address to the people of Gaza on March 19.

The statement signals a further escalation in the Israeli occupation’s brutal onslaught in the Gaza Strip, which has already killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and displaced the overwhelming majority of the enclave’s residents.

Katz also urged Gazans to follow the advice of former US President Donald Trump, claiming that compliance with Israeli demands could lead to alternative “options” for them, including the forced displacement from Gaza permanently.

“Return the kidnapped and get rid of Hamas, then other options will open up for you, including passage to other parts of the world. The alternative is total destruction and devastation,” he added.

His remarks reinforce growing concerns over "Israel’s" plans to depopulate Gaza through systematic forced displacement, a policy widely condemned as a violation of international law.

Palestinian and international human rights groups have repeatedly warned that "Israel’s" actions amount to ethnic cleansing and a deliberate effort to make Gaza uninhabitable.
