Confrontations erupted between the Israeli occupation forces and Palestinian Resistance fighters in 6 Gaza Envelope settlements, including "Sderot", as Operation Al-Aqsa Flood continues for the third consecutive day, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

Despite the ongoing distress calls made by settlers to their military to repel the attacks, Resistance forces have maintained a presence in a significant number of sensitive settlements for over 50 hours now.

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, announced on Monday a significant missile strike toward "Tel Aviv" as part of the operation.

In a statement, the Brigades stated that as part of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, "Al-Quds Brigades directed a major rocket strike to Tel Aviv and central cities in response to the massacres against civilians and the bombing of civilian homes" in the Gaza Strip.

The Resistance group also announced a strike toward Bir Al-Sabe' and "Netivot" settlements using Badr 3 missiles.

Operation Al-Aqsa Flood initiated by the Palestinian Resistance on Saturday morning in response to years-long Israeli occupation and crimes against Palestinians has resulted so far in between 800-1,000 Israeli deaths at least.

On its part, Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades struck "Sderot" Israeli settlement with 90 missiles and "Ashkelon" with 80.

Additionally, al-Qassam targeted a squadron of F16I Israeli fighter jets flying over the Gaza Sea at a depth of 35 km, with two Matar 3 anti-air missiles - an updated model of the Matar 1 system.

For their part, the National Resistance Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), announced that their fighters have reached the "Zikim" Israeli military base and are engaging in intense confrontations with occupation soldiers.

Israeli aggression continues

Earlier today, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that Gaza is witnessing the heaviest bombing since the beginning of the aggression, describing the Israeli airstrikes as "hysteric".

Our reporter stressed that the Israeli occupation forces waged brutal and indiscriminate attacks on the besieged Strip using thermobaric weapons, not to mention phosphorus bombs, which are banned under international law.

In the latest update, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza said Israeli occupation warplanes targeted al-Abbas mosque and the adjacent police center, while also conducting heavy strikes near al-Shifa Hospital, severely damaging the infants' incubators section at the hospital.

The attacks targeted the vicinity of the fishermen's port in Gaza, the report noted.

Occupation air raids also rendered the Beit Hanoun Hospital - the only one in the city - out of service, preventing medical teams from carrying out their humanitarian duties toward wounded Palestinians in the nonstop aggression.

Al-Sabra and al-Salatin towns in Gaza saw the martyrdom of several Palestinians due to Israeli strikes as well.

Furthermore, the Israeli occupation bombed a home in Khan Yunis while its residents were still inside it, but casualties remain unknown so far. Al-Rimal neighborhood west of Gaza also witnessed severe air strikes.

Gaza martyrs

As of 4:00 pm on Monday, the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza has resulted in over 560 Palestinian martyrs, reported the Palestinian Health Ministry.

This number is preliminary as many Palestinians remain unaccounted for under the rubble of collapsed residential buildings due to Israeli brutal airstrikes. Additionally, the Ministry stated that 2,900 individuals have been injured.

As for the West Bank,16 Palestinians, including 3 children, were martyred after being shot by Israeli occupation forces while taking to the streets in support of Gaza and to protest the war crimes committed by the Israeli army against the besieged Strip. Over 80 others were injured to various degrees.
