Qassam Brigades announce series of attacks on 'Israeli' forces in southern Gaza
In a statement, the brigades said that on Thursday, fighters struck three 'Israeli' D9 military bulldozers using Yassin-105 rockets, Shawaz explosive devices, and barrel bombs, claiming direct hits on the targeted vehicles.
The group added that on Wednesday, its fighters detonated three powerful explosive devices on two similar bulldozers in the same area, causing significant damage.
In what the group described as a 'carefully planned ambush,' Al-Qassam said its fighters lured an 'Israeli' force into a booby-trapped tunnel near Qizan an-Najjar. Once several soldiers entered the tunnel, it was detonated with multiple explosive charges, resulting in casualties among the 'Israeli' troops.

'Israeli' army allegedly seals 7 km Hamas tunnel in northern Gaza
The 'Israeli' army said Friday its forces had allegedly sealed a 7-kilometer underground tunnel used by Hamas in northern Gaza. In a statement posted on its website, the army said the operation in the Beit Hanoun area involved pumping more than 20,000 cubic meters of insulating materials through the tunnel's path. Hamas, which has controlled Gaza since 2006, is reported to have built an extensive underground network across the coastal enclave, which is just 45 kilometers long and between 6 and 14 kilometers wide. The total length of the tunnels was believed to be at least 500 kilometers before the outbreak of the current war.

'Israeli' host Sharon Gal hawks same ‘Greater Israel' pendants gifted to Netanyahu
'Israeli' media host Sharon Gal is now selling pendants featuring the 'Greater Israel' map he previously gifted to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The gift was presented during a recent interview with 'Israeli' broadcaster i24NEWS, in which Netanyahu described himself as being on a "historic and spiritual mission" for the Jewish people and expressed a strong connection to the "vision of Greater Israel." The interview, conducted on Tuesday, occurred as his government was preparing to expand military operations into the remaining parts of Gaza. When asked if he felt a connection to the vision, Netanyahu replied, "Very much," and described his mission as spanning generations. The concept of "Greater Israel" (Eretz Yisrael HaShlema) refers to the historic or desired borders of 'Israel'. While biblical definitions vary, the term is now commonly used by 'Israelis' to include the territory of the current state of 'Israel' along with the West Bank and Gaza Strip. This ideology has been a foundational tenet of Netanyahu's Likud party, which traces its roots to Revisionist Zionism and its founder, Ze'ev Jabotinsky. Netanyahu has consistently opposed the creation of a Palestinian state, a stance he has reiterated publicly. Critics argue that the government's settlement expansion policy is the physical embodiment of the "Greater Israel" vision, creating 'facts on the ground' that make a viable Palestinian state impossible. Some view the ongoing war in Gaza as an accelerated attempt to implement this vision, asserting that the government's goal is 'maximum land, and minimum Arabs.'
