Al-Qassam Brigades – the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) – broadcast scenes of its fighters targeting Israeli occupation army soldiers and vehicles east of the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
The scenes showed Al-Qassam carrying out a complex military operation against the occupation vehicles and soldiers, as one of the fighters placed two “Shawaz” explosive devices under two Israeli tanks, coinciding with another fighter targeting an Israeli troop carrier.
This event also coincided with the targeting of a third Israeli vehicle with the “Al-Yassin 105” anti-tank missile, with the fighters successfully returning to the attack tunnel and then hearing the sound of the two tanks detonating.
The scenes also included an Israeli helicopter that carried out the mission of evacuating the dead and wounded following the complex Qassam operation.
The footage also included a series of attacks on Israeli military vehicles, including a Merkava tank, with anti-tank missiles.
The scenes concluded with the bombing of a tunnel eye by an Israeli engineering force that attempted to enter one of the tunnels east of Rafah, and seized a special robot to detect tunnels, according to Al-Qassam’s statement.
On May 6, Tel Aviv announced the start of a military operation in Rafah, claiming that it was “limited in scope,” before the Israeli army announced the extension of its control over the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing, which connects the Gaza Strip to Egypt.
The Al-Qassam Brigades in Gaza have been documenting their operations against the occupation army forces and vehicles on various fronts of combat since the start of the Israeli ground operation on October 27, and many details of the operations carried out against the occupation forces appeared in the video clips.
