During a meeting with the Secretary General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad,  Sayyed Ali Khamenei, leader of the Islamic Revolution, praised the PIJ for their valor in the recent confrontation with "Israel": noting that the growing power of the Palestinian resistance is the key to bringing the zionist regime to its knees. 

Back in May, the Israeli occupation launched a five-day heinous aggression against the Gaza Strip, targeting residential houses in the north, center, and south of the Strip.

In retaliation, Al-Quds Brigades and the Palestinian Resistance factions launched Operation Avenging the Free, in which it fired advanced rockets and missiles that bypassed the Iron Dome and targeted several Israeli settlements, occupied cities, and occupation sites.

The most recent offensive against the Gaza Strip in May saw the unlawful destruction of Palestinians' homes and the killing of Palestinian civilians including children; which was described by Amnesty International as "collective punishment against the civilian population".

During the five-day offensive, 2,943 houses were damaged and 103 homes were completely destroyed. 1,244 civilians were also displaced, according to numbers by the Palestinian Ministry of  Public Works. 

On May 9, three separate attacks targeting PIJ commanders resulted in 10 civilian casualties and injured 20 others: the airstrikes targetted densely populated areas late at night when families were at home asleep which suggests that those who executed the attacks knew that the strikes would result in disproportionate harm to civilians and dismissed this prospect as collateral damage. 

One of the attacks, which targeted Khalil al-Bahtini, resulted in the death of his wife Leila al-Bahtini, their four-year-old daughter Hajar and their neighbors, killing two teenage sisters. The IOF targeted the two-story building with a GBU-39 bomb.

On May 13, the report expounds, the IOF commanded air strikes on a four-story building in the Jabalia refugee camp attacking a house that housed 42 people from the Nabhan family: five of whom are disabled, and 3 of whom are in wheelchairs. 

Research by Amnesty International shows that there was no evidence to show that the building in the Jabalia refugee camp was used to store weapons or any other military equipment.
