As we began preparing the introduction for the daily Resistance roundup, breaking news emerged of an Iraqi drone hitting a target in the southern city of Eilat.
The drone arrived at a time when the Israeli military was estimating its losses for the day, including direct hits by Hezbollah missiles and drones, which reached as far as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Caesarea.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, Al-Qassam fighters continued to target and destroy Israeli Merkava tanks, D9 military bulldozers and Israeli infantry forces in all axes of resistance.
Below are the latest statements by the two main Resistance forces in Gaza, and the Lebanese Resistance Movement Hezbollah.
The statements were communicated via their Telegram channels and are published here in their original form.
