The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced on November 4 that its troops continued ground operations in the northern Gaza Strip overnight.
In a statement, the IDF said that infantry and armored forces led by the 460th “Bnei Or” Brigade encountered numerous attempts by fighters from the Hamas Movement to launch attacks from tunnels. However, the troops killed several fighters and located tunnels.
In one encounter, the troops fought off a group of 15 Hamas fighters, killing several of them and shelling their observation posts, according to the IDF.
Separately, the IDF announced that it had carried out a “targeted raid” in southern Gaza. The limited operation was carried out by combat engineering forces and tanks led by the Gaza Division to map out buildings and to clear the area of planted explosive devices.
The troops encountered a Hamas cell that came out of a tunnel during the operation, the IDF said, adding that the cell was shelled and eliminated.
Heavy Israeli strikes hit Gaza overnight. Three massacres were reported with dozens killed or wounded after strikes targeted ambulances near the al-Shifa Hospital, the vicinity of the Indonesian hospital and a school housing refugees in the al-Saftawi areas in the northern part of the Strip.
From its side, the IDF said that it had struck a number of Hamas targets, including anti-tank missile squads, command centers and infrastructure.
Hamas’ military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, didn’t report any attacks against the IDF overnight. However, this was likely the result of communication difficulties as heavy clashes were reported in northern Gaza and Israeli troops didn’t advance much.
Video footage released late on November 3 showed a fierce attack by Hamas fighters against an IDF armored force in the village of Juhor al-Dik.
The current objective of the IDF is to link its advancing troops along the beach with the units that encircled Gaza city from the south. Once this task is completed, Israeli troops will likely begin to storm Gaza City. The battle in the highly-dense city will likely cause a humanitarian catastrophe as thousands of civilians are still trapped there and the IDF will not evacuate them or allow anyone to do so.
the khazar beach party in gaza is not going as planned by nut’nyahoo and his zionazi tranny soldier$. multiple body-bagged squatter$ are being surreptitiously withdrawn from gaza and discreetly buried throughout occupied palestine.
the wanton blood letting of the children of real semitic palestine will nourish a generation that will obliterate the jew only enclave in the coming years. the idea of freedom cannot be slaughtered and blood, especially the blood of innocents always makes that idea even stronger.
its going exactly as planned. you think the zionists give a shit about a couple dozen dead israeli grunts?
the suggested storming of gaza city is calculated genocide of the israeli fascists. where is world opinion?
western opinion is in the hands of the joos. hollywood control the dreams of the goyim and msm control what they have the right to know. it’s like that for such a long time that the educational system is now totally perverted. a joke about the jews means losing your job. a question about gaz chambers means going to jail. they promote our génocide and their npcs force us to applause. we are next palestinians and we don’t know it.
even the arab leaders are happy that hamas will soon be history. btw, they don’t give a sh!t about palestinians 😆😆😆
gung ho jewish morons just like americans, they have no plan, just running off emotion and rage. ukraine, america and israel are all run by jews. there is your proof these people are not capable of good governance. they are too mentally ill to run politics without appearing like a bunch of savage neanderthals
are those israeli thermal cameras domestic products? they seem to have improved the firmware since the start of the campaign. some look like first gen thermal devices though, with those scan lines and terrible contrast. maybe usa surplus/military aid.
