Intense confrontations took place on Sunday between the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza and the Israeli invading forces along the Deir al-Balah axis in the central part of the Strip, as fighters continued to thwart Israeli plans to separate northern Gaza from its southern region, as reported by Al Mayadeen's correspondent.

Israeli tanks remain positioned on Salah al-Din Street, our correspondent added, emphasizing that there is no confirmed ground incursion in southern Gaza, despite reports from Israeli media suggesting otherwise.

Al-Qassam operation kills 8 Israeli soldiers

On Sunday, the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced the killing of eight Israeli soldiers in an IED ambush targeting an Israeli infantry unit in northeastern Khan Younis, in southern Gaza.

Furthermore, the Brigades claimed responsibility for targeting an Israeli D9 bulldozer with a Tandem shell and shelling a gathering of Israeli soldiers with heavy mortars, also in northeastern Khan Younis. An Israeli tank and an armored personnel carrier were targeted in the same area with al-Yassin 105 shells, where Israeli forces were attempting to advance.

On the same frontlines, the Resistance group announced that its fighters "targeted five Zionist vehicles east of Deir al-Balah with fidayeen explosive devices and al-Yassin 105 shells," confirming the complete destruction of three vehicles.

Also in the eastern part of Deir al-Balah, an Israeli soldiers' gathering was shelled with heavy-caliber mortars.

In a significant operation, the Brigades revealed that its fighters targeted an Israeli special forces unit entrenched in a building in Beit Hanoun with anti-fortification TBG shells, confirming that the fighters later directly engaged with the unit and killed a number of its soldiers.

In rocket launch operations, the Resistance group said in a statement that it targeted the "Ashkelon" settlement in Gaza's periphery with a barrage of rockets, confirming that it was in response to Israeli massacres against civilians in the Strip.

Meanwhile, the Martyr Omar al-Qassem Resistance group, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, announced that it targeted advancing Israeli Namer APCs with anti-tank shells during intense confrontations in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza.
