In a statement on Monday, the Qassam Brigades, the Hamas military wing, said that in different operations in northern Gaza Strip, its fighters killed five Israeli occupation forces.
Al-Qassam stressed that its fighters also set fire to a Merkava tank with its occupants and targeted a military jeep with a number of Israeli soldiers inside with hand grenades, killing and wounding all of its occupants.
Israeli regime waged a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the Palestinian Hamas Resistance group carried out a historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
Israel has imposed a complete siege on the densely populated territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
The Times of Israel reported the Israeli military as confirming a soldier was killed during fighting in the northern Gaza Strip earlier today.
The slain soldier is named as Sgt. Uriel Peretz, 23, of the Kfir Brigade’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion, from Beitar Illit.
Another three soldiers with the battalion were seriously wounded in the same incident, in the Beit Hanoun area, the Times said.
