The Al-Qassam Brigades have released dramatic footage of operations targeting Israeli occupation forces in the eastern Gaza incursion zones, with sniper attacks featured prominently.
The footage shows Al-Qassam snipers taking direct aim at the driver of an Israeli military bulldozer on Al-Muntar Hill, east of Gaza City, hitting him squarely as he carried out excavation work at an army position.
Another clip shows an occupation soldier being shot inside a fortified military post on Al-Muntar Hill, followed by the sniper taking out a second soldier who was firing his machine gun indiscriminately towards eastern Gaza areas — the soldier dropped instantly after being struck by the sniper’s bullet.
In a particularly striking scene, an Al-Qassam fighter emerges unexpectedly from the window of a house and unleashes a burst of gunfire directly at an Israeli soldier sitting at the entrance of a nearby house, hitting the target and sending the soldier’s comrades into screams, clearly heard in the footage.
One fighter also ambushed an Israeli tank from just a few metres away, launching an Al-Yassin 105 rocket-propelled grenade that hit the tank directly before withdrawing safely from the site.
Additionally, an Al-Qassam fighter fired a series of mortar shells at a gathering point for occupation forces in the area.
It is worth noting that ambushes have escalated in recent days against the Israeli army, as resistance factions continue a war of attrition that has led to sustained casualties among Israeli forces. Just last night, reports confirmed that five soldiers were killed and 14 others wounded in a complex ambush in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza Strip.
