Al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, announced that its fighters had engaged Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in close-quarters combat in an ambush that they had plotted prior in Jabalia. 

The Brigades also confirmed targeting an Israeli military vehicle in the north along the Jabalia axis using a tandem RPG, leading to its destruction.

Earlier today, the IOF announced that a reservist was killed in Gaza during confrontations with the Resistance, raising the death toll, as per Israeli figures, to 105.

The Israeli army acknowledged that 20 were killed, since the beginning of the ground invasion of Gaza, by "friendly fire" and operational incidents, that is, about one-fifth of the total deaths since the invasion.

13 of the total twenty were killed by Israeli occupation forces' fire after they were mistakenly identified as an enemy.

Just today, the Israeli occupation army announced the killing of an officer and the serious wounding of three soldiers during battles with the Palestinian resistance in the Gaza Strip.

Yesterday, al-Qassam Brigades said its fighters were engaging in numerous confrontations west of the Jabalia refugee camp.

Al-Qassam Brigades said there were casualties among Israeli soldiers who had sheltered themselves in a civilian building after they attacked their positions with TBG rockets.

Al-Aqsa Brigades said its fighters attacked an Israeli armored vehicle in the western Jabalia direction, which killed and wounded all the soldiers aboard.

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, said its fighters engaged in fierce urban combat with the invading enemy forces, with two Israeli tanks being partially or completely destroyed west of Jabalia after they were attacked with the tandem RPGs.

In Khan Younis, the high-intensity warfare is expected to last another three or four weeks, according to Axios, which cited a senior Israeli defense official.

Despite the pressure, the Biden administration is not "pulling the brakes" on the Israeli occupation's operation across the Gaza Strip with the alleged goal of eliminating Hamas.

The Israeli official told Axios that the Israeli occupation forces "have made significant progress" in northern Gaza, but that the operation in the southern city of Khan Younis "has just started."

Significantly, the US has also allegedly not given "Israel" a firm deadline to stop the operation, said the Israeli official, while White House Deputy National Security Adviser Jon Finer corroborated that information when he told the Aspen Security Forum in Washington, earlier last week, that "this is their conflict. That said, we do have influence, even if we don't have ultimate control over what happens on the ground in Gaza."
