Israeli Army Says It Captured Key Hamas Stronghold After Fierce Battle (Videos)

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on November 9 that its troops from the 933rd “Nahal” Brigade captured a stronghold of the Hamas Movement, known as outpost 17, in the west part of the Jabaliya refugee camp in the Gaza Strip after a fierce battle that last for around ten hours.

The troops battled Hamas and Islamic Jihad fighters who were both “above ground and in an underground route in the area,” in the stronghold, the IDF said, adding that dozens of Palestinian fighters were killed.

Inside outpost 17, the troops located many weapons and uncovered tunnel shafts, including one that led to an “extensive underground route,” according to the IDF. The troops also found “significant” Hamas battle plans in the stronghold.

Separately, the IDF said that its troops uncovered a Hamas drone manufacturing plant and weapons depot inside a residential building in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood.

Footage released by the IDF showed troops finding several Hamas drones in the building, as well as equipment used to manufacture them, and instructions to make explosive devices. A number of bombs were also found there.

In addition, the IDF announced that the Air Force carried out strikes against hundreds of targets across Gaza over the past day.

One of the recent strikes on the Strip killed Ibrahim Abu-Maghsib, who was the head of Hamas’s anti-tank force in the so-called central camps brigade, according to a joint statement by the IDF and the Shin Bet security service.

Recent Israeli operations in Gaza were not without losses. The IDF admitted that a soldier of the Combat Engineering Corp’s 8219th Battalion, was killed. His death brings the toll of slain troops in Israel’s ground offensive in Gaza to 34, and 352 since the war broke out on October 7.

From its side, Hamas’ military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, announced that its fighters have targeted two main battle tanks, three armored personnel carriers and one armored bulldozer of the IDF with rocket-propelled grenades in northern Gaza during the morning of November 9. The group also said that an Israeli infantry unit was ambushed and eliminated near the village of Juhor al-Dik.

Moreover, several rocket attacks were launched from Gaza. Warning sirens were sounded in the nearby settlements of Kissufim and Nahal Oz as well as in the city of Ashdod. However, no material losses or casualties were reported.

The IDF appears to be determined to go on with its ground operation in Gaza, ignoring the worsening humanitarian situation in the Strip and recent calls for a temporary ceasefire. Currently, Israeli troops are working to complete control over the beach of Gaza City. Their next target will be the city itself.

the world cries out for justice and freedom from these despicable thieving genocidal demon khazars. palestine will not be slaughtered by these thugs and the evil bought hoes in the so called “west”. the muslim world must rise up now and crush the vermin or wait its own annihilation at the hands of these psychopaths. god bless the palestinian freedom fighters.

i do believe there will be a wider escalation. western propaganda is in overdrive, showing how israeli jets bomb palestinian civilians. it’s clear they want to incite both sides. if it’s shown by western propagandists, it’s not without purpose.

in contrast, they have yet to show a single ukrainian attack on civilians in donetsk.

because jews need mass immigration to destroy the white race. the process is almost achieved in western europe where millions of muslims live now. they show the mass slaughter of palestinian only to appease the muslim part of the population. they want them create the perfect golem, a globalized human, without motherland, without honor or shame, a perfect shabbat goy.

israel and the usa are the only armies that have the balls to go in. the only other forces have the balls to go in and fight are taliban, alqaeda, hamas, hezbollah, isis……… so the point of the story is the only grous that have the guts to send in fighters are the terrorist groups and nations of the world.

the us navy know they are safe as houses in the med sea because they know zero countries like iran, china or russia have the balls to attack them.

usa is literally blowing up crimea and russian troops all over urkaine and russia do nothing.

and when a tactical nuke false flag is done still no nation will do anything

only israel and usa stand up 100% for themselves and thats sad

the jewish supremacist state does not make a move without the full support of its imperialist sponsors. that goes back to 1948, and continued through the suez operations, the 1967 and ’73 land grabs, right up to today. are you, in your muddled, inept way, suggesting that russia has not sent in fighters to deal with the us imperialist program in the ukraine? never stop derping.

Low Hung Testicle

ohhh you didnt read my comments. as far as i can see there are no us forces in ukraine for russia to take on.

meanwhile, the usa is literally destroying the russian navy and ammo dumps. usa literally has drones flying over crimea and organising everything. the ukraine war is just a frovy vessel thank never even got to leave port or do a single operation. its newestnt. you probably have zero idea what its even about- and it goes back over 1000 years.

i heard israel was prepared to lose between 1000-2000 troops so 38 in the first 10 days aint bad.

they will have the majority of those tunnels collapsed in no time with those bomb equipped rovers theyre using.

Cromwell

any positions the palestinians have to pull out from should be blown up or booby trapped.
