The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, announced on Monday that it had launched a rocket barrage targeting Sderot, Netiv HaAsara, Zikim, and settlements surrounding Gaza.

Israeli media reported that air raid sirens sounded in Sderot and its surroundings for the second time in a row, signaling incoming rocket fire.

This escalation comes as the Palestinian resistance continues to retaliate against Israeli aggression on Gaza and the ongoing massacres against civilians.

Resistance operations see uptick

Al-Qassam Brigades launched on Friday a salvo of rockets toward the occupied city of Askalan.

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 Thursday a barrage of "Moqadama M90" rockets targeting Tel Aviv in retaliation for the massacres committed by the occupation against civilians in the Gaza Strip.

Despite the ceasefire agreement, the Israeli occupation has deliberately imposed new conditions and pressure on the Palestinian resistance, violating the truce.

The renewed Israeli aggression on Gaza has resulted in hundreds of martyrs and over a thousand wounded, as airstrikes target various areas across the besieged 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.
