The al-Mujahideen Brigades' fighters also targeted an assembly of Israeli occupation forces west of Khan Younis with a Sa'ir rocket.
Earlier, the Israeli occupation military confirmed that 20 of its troops were injured in battles in the Gaza Strip over the past 48 hours.
On Saturday, the Israeli occupation military confirmed that the number of its troops killed since October 7 has risen to 573. Israeli news sources also reported the critical injury of two soldiers from the Maglan special unit in battles in the southern Gaza Strip.
But footage published by the military media of the Palestinian Resistance factions indicates that the losses incurred are much greater than officially declared.
