Qassam ambushes 'Israeli' troops in first attack since ceasefire broke
Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, announced that its fighters detonated an explosive device targeting an 'Israeli' special forces unit east of Rafah, in the Abu al-Rous area of southern Gaza.
According to the group, the 'Israeli' unit had infiltrated the area when the pre-rigged house was detonated, causing multiple casualties among the soldiers, including both dead and wounded.
This marks the first ambush carried out by Qassam fighters since the resumption of 'Israel's' military assault on Gaza on March 18, following the collapse of a temporary ceasefire.

Seven Gazans killed, dozens injured in Israeli attack while waiting for aid
Seven Palestinians were killed and dozens injured early Sunday after Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) launched artillery strikes on civilians waiting for humanitarian aid in the Al-Twam and Beit Lahia areas, northwest of Gaza City. Medical sources at Al-Shifa Hospital confirmed receiving multiple casualties, including several in critical condition, following the attacks on gatherings of civilians attempting to collect food aid. Local sources reported that 'Israeli' forces shelled civilians in the Al-Twam area, while similar strikes hit Beit Lahia, resulting in the deaths and injuries. Eyewitnesses said the shelling sparked panic among displaced residents already suffering from severe food shortages due to the ongoing blockade on the Gaza Strip. The Government Media Office in Gaza condemned the attacks, describing them as part of a deliberate policy by the 'Israeli' occupation to target civilians, especially during aid distributions. The statement also accused certain US-backed aid organizations of complicity by establishing so-called 'humiliation checkpoints' that put civilian lives at risk. According to the office, the death toll since the beginning of the war in October 2023 has surpassed 55,000, with over 127,000 people injured. 'Israeli' military has not issued an official statement on Sunday's incident but continues its operations in northern Gaza, claiming to be targeting 'terrorist sites.' The attacks come amid a broader escalation in regional tensions, particularly between Israeli Occupation and Iran, further worsening the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
