Rising Casualties and Intensified Resistance in Gaza
The ongoing Israeli aggression in Gaza has resulted in a devastating toll, with medical sources reporting that 36 martyrs, predominantly women and children, have been killed since dawn on Saturday. The violence has escalated particularly in the Jabalia camp, where an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential building, leading to widespread destruction and numerous casualties. Victims were rushed to Kamal Adwan Hospital and the Baptist Hospital, highlighting the dire humanitarian crisis in the region.
As the siege on northern Gaza continues for the ninth consecutive day, resistance factions are intensifying their operations against Israeli forces. The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, claimed responsibility for detonating explosive devices targeting Israeli infantry and armored vehicles, resulting in casualties among the invading troops. In the southern Gaza Strip, Al-Qassam reported successful strikes against Merkava tanks and military bulldozers, demonstrating the escalating confrontation between resistance factions and Israeli forces.
In addition, the Al-Quds Brigades of the Islamic Jihad Movement announced the destruction of Israeli troop carriers using advanced explosive devices. The ongoing conflict has led to a staggering humanitarian crisis, with reports indicating that over 42,175 Palestinians have been killed and 98,336 injured in the past year alone, according to Gaza's Ministry of Health.
