Hamas announces ambush on 'Israeli' forces in Jabalia
The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced Thursday that its fighters carried out a complex ambush targeting Israeli Occupation Forces in the eastern Jabalia area of northern Gaza last Sunday. In a statement, the group said its fighters destroyed an Israeli Occupation 'Namer' armored personnel carrier using a 'Yassin 105' shell and a 'Shawaz' explosive device, reportedly resulting in casualties among the vehicle's crew. After an 'Israeli' rescue force intervened and began to withdraw, Al-Qassam fighters detonated a powerful explosive device targeting a military 'Hummer' jeep, leading to further casualties. The fighters then engaged the remaining 'Israeli' troops in a direct firefight using light weapons. The statement also claimed that when an Israeli Occupation 'Yasur' helicopter attempted to land to evacuate the wounded, it came under heavy gunfire from Al-Qassam fighters, forcing it to retreat without completing the evacuation.
