An Israeli military force attempted to infiltrate an area east of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, Al-Qassam Brigades said in a statement on Sunday.
Once again, the Israeli army resorted to the use of aid trucks as a way to carry out special operations in crowded Palestinian areas, according to the statement.
As soon as the force entered one of the houses, Al-Qassam fighters “engaged directly with them at point-blank range”.
The clash resulted in the killing and the wounding of all members of the Israeli force, the statement concluded.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
