Al-Qassam Brigades Target Zionist Terror Forces in Khan Younis Offensive

The al-Qassam Brigades, the armed division of Hamas, declared on Thursday the execution of a series of synchronized operations aimed at occupation forces in the southern Gaza Strip, with a focus on Khan Younis.

The assaults occur as confrontations persist and Israeli ground operations continue within the blockaded enclave.

In a statement released by the Resistance group, it was reported that several mortar shells targeted a congregation of Israeli soldiers and military vehicles positioned east of the al-Qarara region, located northeast of Khan Younis. The shelling is said to have resulted in casualties among the occupation forces.

In a distinct operation, al-Qassam fighters reportedly detonated three barrel bombs within an Israeli military vehicle hangar situated south of the Batn al-Sameen area. The explosion allegedly led to casualties among Israeli soldiers, according to claims made by the group.

Earlier today, the al-Qassam Brigades carried out a strategic ambush on three Israeli armored personnel carriers east of Khan Younis. The group characterized the operation as “complex,” with the objective of hindering the progress of Israeli military forces in the region.

These developments are integral to the wider operations by the al-Qassam Brigades in Khan Younis, where the Resistance has sustained its presence despite facing significant aerial and ground attacks.

Recent operations highlight the enduring resilience of Palestinian Resistance factions in the face of efforts by the occupying forces to assert control in southern Gaza. Despite ongoing airstrikes and attempts to breach defensive lines, fighters have successfully conducted operations against Israeli military personnel.

On Wednesday, the al-Qassam Brigades reported that its combatants detonated an explosive device targeting Israeli forces in the southern Gaza Strip on Monday evening.

The al-Qassam Brigades have announced that their operatives executed an operation involving the detonation of three explosive devices aimed at an Israeli military convoy in the southern al-Batin as-Sameen region, situated south of Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip. This attack reportedly resulted in casualties among Israeli soldiers, though specific numbers were not disclosed.

On Saturday, July 26, the al-Qassam Brigades declared they executed a sophisticated ambush aimed at three Israeli military vehicles east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
