A senior source in Al-Qassam Brigades revealed to Al-Jazeera details of the operation in Al-Maghazi refugee camp, in central Gaza, which led to the killing of more than 20 Israeli officers and soldiers on Monday. 

This is the order of the events, as described by Al-Qassam:

– Our fighters have been stationed for weeks in the operation area east of Al-Maghazi despite the intense and continuous (Israeli) bombardment.

– The instructions were to avoid engagement with the forces infiltrating Al-Maghazi camp while waiting for a valuable target.

– The enemy intensified fire in the area and combed it until it was thought to be safe, then engineering forces were brought in.

– Our fighters monitored the advancing enemy force and identified it as an engineering unit based on their identity and equipment.

– The fighters preferred not to engage with another infantry force standing over a minefield previously prepared by Al-Qassam.

– The fighters waited for the force to finish its work and set the explosives, then targeted it with an anti-personnel shell.

That said, Wednesday was also a very busy day for the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza, and also in Lebanon. 

Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.

The statements below were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
