While a tank belonging to the 196th battalion of the 460th armored brigade was firing at Kamal Adwan Hospital, in Beit Lahia, Palestinian fighters managed to blow it up.
It is difficult to produce a tally of Israeli military losses today.
What is known, however, is that, per the admission of Israeli media, the Israeli army suffered many ‘difficult security incidents’, not only in south Lebanon but in Gaza as well.
According to Israeli sources, ten Iten officers and soldiers were killed and more than 20 others were wounded in fighting with Hezbollah, in the course of one day.
According to Hezbollah, however, the Israeli losses were much more significant. Within the course of one hour, Hezbollah declared it targeted and destroyed five Merkava tanks, suggesting that the nature of the battles, at least from Hezbollah’s side, has entered a new phase.
The Gaza battlefield, despite the total destruction and extermination of northern Gaza, is as difficult as ever.
While a tank belonging to the 196th battalion of the 460th armored brigade was firing at Kamal Adwan Hospital, in Beit Lahia, Palestinian fighters managed to blow it up.
According to the Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (KAN), the tank had a crew of four, three of whom were killed and one wounded.
Many other resistance operations were also reported in Gaza and south Lebanon.
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.
Al-Qassam Brigades (Hamas)
“During a complex ambush, the Al-Qassam Brigades targeted two Zionist troop carriers with Al-Yassin 105 and Tandem shells, and a “D9” military bulldozer with an explosive device near the Martyr Imad Aqel Mosque, east of Jabaliya camp, northern Gaza Strip.
