Qassam Brigades claims killing of Israeli soldier near Khan Younis
The armed wing of Hamas, the Qassam Brigades, said in a post on Telegram that its fighters killed an Israeli soldier near the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis city. The Israeli military has yet to comment. Meanwhile, the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), al-Quds Brigades, said its fighters are engaged in "fierce clashes" with Israeli soldiers in Khan Younis. Earlier, the group claimed to have destroyed an Israeli military vehicle by "detonating a highly explosive barrel bomb". This followed a statement by the Israeli military that it had killed a Palestinian fighter in the occupied West Bank, seemingly in reference to senior PIJ fighter Ra'iq Abdul Rahman Bisharat, who was killed during a raid in the town of Tammun.
