Israeli media say the internal front of the occupation entity is heavily impacted by the repercussions of the aggression on Gaza, which led to Resistance rocket launches.

Israeli media reported that the Islamic Jihad movement could manage the battle for long days and that the economic and moral losses would increase on the Israeli internal front, which has been paralyzed for five days since the launch of the aggression on the Gaza Strip.

In this context, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told Israeli Channel 12 that 70% of the settlers in the south fled as the Palestinian Islamic Jihad continues its rocket launches in response to the Israeli aggression on the Strip.

Moshe Steinmetz, the police affairs correspondent for the Israeli Kan channel, explained, "The home front is very wide, but it is almost paralyzed. Millions of Israelis have not gone to school in recent days," noting that this is the fifth day of the aggression.

The Israeli media also reported, quoting a political source, that "Israel" is militarily incapable of imposing a ceasefire on Islamic Jihad.

The Israeli Channel 12 news site stated that the Islamic Jihad Movement used, for the first time in this round, a missile called "Badr 3", which it fired at open fields in the coastal Askalan area.

The Israeli media indicated that the missile is of relatively short range, ranging between 5-7 kilometers, however, it has a very large warhead of about 200 kilograms of explosive material - and is therefore capable of causing very significant damage.

The Israeli media pointed out that "the use of the Badr 3 missile for short ranges is, in fact, part of building new means of war that the Islamic Jihad, Hamas, and Hezbollah are trying to develop."

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad, promised the Israeli occupation on Saturday that settlements and occupied territories will witness renewed shelling following the occupation's insistence on continuing its assassination policy against the Palestinian Resistance.

In a brief statement, the Brigades reaffirmed that "in the face of the continued assassinations and destruction of civilian homes, the Palestinian resistance will renew its rocket fire on Israeli settlements."

Moreover, the statement noted that as part of Operation Avenging the Free, "the Resistance has prepared itself for months of confrontation," adding, "We can endure for a long time and are blessed with a great, loyal popular base."

For its part, Israeli media, citing Western diplomats, noted that "Israel" is striking empty houses where no one is found so as not to "break pots".

Moreover, Israeli media said, "Israel is working to do so, so as not to force Islamic Jihad to escalate and increase its salvos."
