The Palestinian Resistance is engaged in fierce confrontations against Israeli occupation forces on the 105th day of the ongoing Al-Aqsa Flood Battle, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported.

Our correspondent indicated that the confrontations are concentrated in Khan Younis, south of Gaza, as well as in the center of the Strip, especially northeast of the al-Bureij camp.

Al-Qassam Brigades

Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced that its Resistance fighters targeted an Israeli Merkava tank in al-Bureij camp using a locally made al-Yassin 105 shell and shelled the Israeli occupation forces in the camp with mortar shells.

Al-Qassam snipers also targeted an Israeli soldier in al-Bureij using a homemade al-Ghoul rifle and targeted two other soldiers in Khan Younis.

East of Khan Younis, the Brigades targeted three Israeli Merkava tanks with a homegrown Explosively Formed Penetrator, Shawaz, killing two raiding soldiers, prompting an Israeli helicopter to land to evacuate the killed and wounded soldiers.

Al-Qassam Brigades released footage showing its fighters targeting Israeli forces advancing near the border of Gaza City with mortar shells and 107mm rocket artillery.

In addition, the Palestinian Resistance fighters blew up a tunnel with a number of Israeli soldiers inside, causing casualties among them after managing to lure them to al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza City. 

The Brigades also confirmed targeting a fortified building housing Israeli special forces with four RPG shells and engaged with Israeli soldiers using automatic weapons, in addition to targeting an Israeli soldier in the Sheikh Ajleen neighborhood, west of Gaza City, with snipers.

In al-Zaytun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, al-Qassam fighters targeted an Israeli tank with an al-Yassin 105 shell, as well as an Israeli military vehicle with an RPG shell.

Al-Quds Brigades

Meanwhile, al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement, announced shelling a grouping of Israeli soldiers and vehicles positioned in al-Zaytun neighborhood, east of Gaza City, with mortar shells, and engaging in fierce confrontations with the soldiers in the area using machine guns.

In the central Gaza Strip, al-Quds Brigades targeted a grouping of Israeli forces east of al-Bureij camp and another in the Sa'aida area, east of the al-Maghazi camp.

The Brigades confirmed targeting an Israeli military vehicle with a Tandem rocket-propelled grenade, east of Jabalia, and released footage of targeting Israeli military gatherings in al-Bureij with 107mm and Badr 1 rocket artillery.

Other Palestinian Resistance factions

In the same context, al-Mujahideen Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Mujahideen movement, announced shelling the Israeli settlement of "Nahal Oz" in the Gaza Envelope with a barrage of rockets.

Al-Mujahideen Brigades also mourned Nazih Abu Draz, one of its field commanders, who was martyred during a field mission in the Aabsan area, east of Khan Younis.

Meanwhile, the martyr Omar al-Qassem forces, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), engaged in intense confrontations in the south of al-Namsawi and Batn al-Samin neighborhoods in Khan Younis and detonated an explosive device against the infiltrating Israeli vehicles in the area, achieving direct hits.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades targeted a D9-type Israeli military bulldozer with RPG shells south of Khan Younis.

Earlier, al-Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees in Palestine, announced that an Israeli strike killed Ohad Yahalomi, an Israeli officer taken captive on October 7.

In a statement, the Brigades detailed that the Israeli officer taken captive was targeted by the Israeli army along with the group responsible for guarding him, resulting in his moderate injury, which was treated.

However, Israeli warplanes deliberately targeted Yahalomi again a few days ago with the intention of killing him, and despite their efforts to save his life, he was killed, the Resistance group's statement added.
