On the 69th day of the Israeli war on Gaza, the occupation forces committed new atrocities in the north, center, and south of the Gaza Strip.

A new massacre was committed by the Israeli occupation in Jabalia al-Balad, located in northern Gaza Strip, on Thursday, according to Al Mayadeen‘s correspondent who underscored that over 100 people have been martyred at the location.

An Israeli raid targeted and destroyed buildings in the neighborhood, and our correspondent reported that dozens of martyrs have been recovered from under the rubble so far.

In parallel, it was reported that the occupation also carried out a series of intense raids on Jabalia, al-Zaytoun, and al-Shujaiya. The raids also actively aimed at preventing ambulance crews from reaching the targeted regions, and the Civil Defense spokesperson said that artillery shells were falling on the heads of citizens randomly in these areas.

Our correspondent also pointed out that occupation snipers targeted two children, no more than 6 years old, and that occupation artillery fired shells randomly at the al-Saftawi area, north of Gaza City.

Alongside these attacks targeting the north of the Strip, our correspondent also underscored that the occupation targeted the city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.

Moreover, in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported that the occupation committed two horrific massacres, pointing out that more than 100 martyrs, most of them displaced, were killed by hysterical Israeli air strikes in the past five hours.

Gazans face ‘darkest chapter of their history since 1948’: UNRWA chief

The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees warned Wednesday that the people of Gaza were “running out of time and options” amid the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Strip.

“They face bombardment, deprivation and disease in an ever-shrinking space,” UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini told the Global Refugee Forum in Geneva.

Lazzarini described the situation in Gaza as “hell on earth”.

People in the Strip were “facing the darkest chapter of their history since 1948, and it has been a painful history,” he expressed.

“Israel’s” relentless bombardment and ground invasion in Gaza has left the Strip in ruins, killing more than 18,600 people, mostly women and children, according to the Ministry of Health in the Strip.

The UN estimates that 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.4 million people have been displaced and are receiving goods from only around 100 aid trucks per day.

“We are very far from an adequate humanitarian response,” Lazzarini said.

Palestinian Resistance Unleashes Heroic Epics in Ongoing Confrontation with IOF in Gaza

 December 11, 2023

The Palestinian resistance continues to defy the Israeli occupation forces as they are trying to advance into Gaza. After 66 relentless days, the resistance’s unwavering determination has resulted in substantial losses among the enemy ranks.

Recent reports from Palestinian sources shed light on violent clashes between Palestinian resisters and occupation soldiers in Ma’an and Bani Suheila, located east of Khan Yunis. Meanwhile, the al-Qassam Brigades launched a series of mortar attacks on occupation military concentrations within the station area of Khan Yunis. The al-Quds Brigades also joined the fray by bombarding the enemy’s positions around the shadow mosque in the eastern axis of Khan Yunis using multiple mortar shells.

Speaking in a statement released on Sunday, the Qassam Brigades declared that their fighters had successfully destroyed forty-four military vehicles, either entirely or partially, in various battlefronts across the Gaza Strip over the past 48 hours. Furthermore, they confirmed the elimination of forty Israeli occupation soldiers while dozens of others were injured during assaults on their positions and encampments.

The attacks involved the use of anti-fortification missiles, shells, anti-personnel canisters, and engagement from point-blank range. Targets included field command headquarters, military gatherings, and strategically rigged buildings, resulting in massive explosions. Mortars and short-range rockets also played a significant role in demolishing occupation military infrastructure.

Abu Obeida, the military spokesperson for the Qassam Brigades, expressed his satisfaction with their performance and unity, stressing that thousands of fighters were awaiting their turn on the battlefield. He highlighted the successful targeting of the occupation forces in both old and new incursion axes.

Notably, the Qassam Brigades managed to destroy more than 180 military vehicles in prominent areas like Shuja’iya, Zeitoun, Sheikh Radwan, Jabalia camp, Beit Lahiya, Deir al-Balah, and Khan Yunis. These attacks included the use of Yasin shells, canisters, guerrilla tactics, ambushes, machine guns, booby-trapped tunnels, entrapment maneuvers, and sniping operations.

Abu Obaida remarked that the Qassam Brigades also launched mortar and rocket attacks, targeting occupied cities with dozens of explosive bursts. He confidently asserted that verified casualties occurred among the occupation forces, with most Qassam fighters returning to their positions unharmed.

In a powerful display of the resistance’s strength, photos were released showcasing wounded soldiers being airlifted by occupation helicopters following the bombing of the “sofa” military site.

Simultaneously, the Al-Quds Brigades revealed that its resistance fighters had bombarded gatherings of Israeli occupation military vehicles in progress axes using heavy-caliber mortar shells. In addition, they targeted several Israeli military vehicles in Jabalia, Falluja, and the Shujaiya camp in northern Gaza.

A moment that captured the resistance’s relentless spirit occurred when the Al-Quds Brigades blew up a house in the Shujaiya neighborhood, where more than thirteen Israeli occupation soldiers were attempting to locate a tunnel entrance. One of their martyred fighters successfully emerged from the tunnel and killed two occupation soldiers before demolishing the entire house, inflicting significant  casualties.

These fierce battles and clashes have forced the occupation to acknowledge the growing power of the resistance on the ground. The enemy finds themselves surprised daily by the resistance’s unwavering determination and resourcefulness during the ongoing conflict.

The Israeli occupation forces are going through a blitz in Gaza as the Resistance continues to destroy their supposedly sophisticated tanks with homegrown weapons.

The military wing of the Hamas Resistance movement, the al-Qassam Brigades, published footage on Wednesday evening showing the Resistance’s fighters confronting the Israeli forces invading the Shujaiya neighborhood in the Gaza Strip.

The Al-Qassam Brigades released never-seen-before footage from the Shujaiya neighborhood, one of the largest neighborhoods in Gaza, where the occupation repeatedly postponed its invasion and initiated it a few days ago.

Shujaiya holds great significance as it is the neighborhood where the Israeli soldier Oron Shaul was captured in 2014. Additionally, it houses the Shujaiya battalion, one of the top attack battalions within the Al-Qassam Brigades

The footage shows Al-Qassam fighters moving through the destroyed buildings, approaching closely to Israeli tanks, carrying the renowned Yasin-105 anti-tank RPG. They spotted three Israeli tanks and launched anti-tank missiles at them.

The fighters targeted the tanks from within the demolished buildings, destroying the vehicles and sending them up in flames. They then targeted a bulldozer passing through the area before attacking another group of tanks.

The Israeli occupation forces admitted Wednesday to the killing of a first-class reservist during the ongoing battles in the northern Gaza Strip.

With the death of the Israeli soldier, the number of IOF’s casualties in the Gaza Strip has risen to 10 in the last 24 hours.

The IOF have announced the death toll of its forces has risen to 84 since their invasion of Gaza began, bringing the total death toll since October 7 to 408 Israeli soldiers.

The IOF revealed that a deputy company commander in the 53rd Battalion and an IOF soldier in the patrol company in the 6261st Battalion, affiliated with the 261st Brigade, were both killed in battles in the northern Gaza Strip on Monday.

According to a Channel 13 correspondent, despite the brutal assault on the strip, Palestinian resistance has confronted steadfastly the raids of the IOF, especially using anti-tank and anti-armor munitions against the Israeli forces.

Early on Monday morning, the Israeli Occupation Forces admitted that three soldiers were killed during confrontations with the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza.

This comes shortly after the Israeli army announced the death of a commander of the Gaza Division’s Southern Brigade, who was reportedly killed during confrontations on October 7, adding that his body was still held in Gaza.
