On February 25, the al-Mujahideen Brigades and the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, released footage from a recent joint attack in which several Israeli troops were targeted by snipers from the two allied Palestinian armed factions in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Israeli troops were operating near their main battle tanks close to Taiba Towers in the western part of the city of Khan Younis when they came under sniper fire.
The footage released by the al-Mujahideen Brigades and the al-Quds Brigades indicate that at least six troops were hit, some directly in the head.
The attack shows how smaller factions in Gaza have been contributing to the fight against the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). It also highlights the growing threats Israeli troops are facing after further expanding their control within the Strip, especially in Khan Younis.
The IDF announced on February 25 the death of two more soldiers in Gaza, both were servince in the Givati Brigade’s reconnaissance unit.
Their death has brought the toll of Israeli troops killed during ground operations in the Strip to 240. At least 1,361 others have been reportedly wounded.
The IDF withdrew several formations, mainly made up of reservists, from Gaza in recent weeks. Its troops also abandoned several parts of the Strip. In addition, Indirect talks between Israel and Hamas have reportedly made some progress in recent days.
Despite these developments, the IDF is still preparing to launch a large-scale offensive in the southern Gaza area of Rafah, which is located right on the border of Egypt. More than one million Palestinians are currently taking shelter there.
An offensive in Rafah could lead to a significant increase in the number of casualties in the Strip, which has already exceeded 29,000.
they get what they deserve
240 dead idf that’s two full companies or 6 platoons if you like lost and more than 1300 injuries. in truth the numbers are much hi iger . yes the snipers are taking their toll of dead jews! it’s an unpredictable risk when snipers are operating especially in war damaged buildings where anything is possible! yes congratulations to the gaza freedom fighters……..keep it up!
there must be a registry of deaths births etc in israel. you’d think some investigative journalist would check to see how many 20 to 40 year olds have died since october 2023 in israel and what the corresponding data was for the preceding years. it should be public data.
yes but the israeli government won’t allow the real data to be made public! hospital reports and newspaper death notices in jewish local newspapers will give us a clue as to the real causality numbers the idf have sustained
maybe it’s time to think of the thousands of children amputated without painkillers because of the blockade and bombs whenever these fuckers die.
more dead jew nazis. life is good.
would’ve been awesome if they’d followed up with an rpg to the tank.
dead rat zionist is a beautiful sight. glory to the fighters of palestine. true heroes
i see dead people, well can’t really call israhellis people…..
things that participate in the literal wholesale slaughter of civilians and children trying to avoid war and fighting are monsters to be put down, not people. it is truly disgusting that the world has let it carry on this long too. absolutely disgraceful.
