"Al-Aqsa Storm" 71st day; new wave of air and ground strikes on Gaza Strip

 According to the Palestinian Al-Youm Network, Zionist regime militants brutally shelled residential buildings in the Al-Manara area in southeastern Khan Younis and residential buildings in the Al-Barahmeh area of ​​Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, killing dozens of Palestinians and wounded. Zionist militants also extensively and brutally bombed the Jabaliya camp in the northern Gaza Strip, the Al-Fakhari area and Al-Fakhari District Hospital in the east of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip, and the Darj and Al-Tuffah areas of Gaza City. The Arabic-language journalist stressed that the Zionist regime's artillery and air strikes have intensified along the Gaza Strip border strip, and we are witnessing the formation of fire belts in the eastern areas of Gaza City. This journalist added: “Fighters of the Zionist regime have massively bombed residential buildings in Gaza City.

And this despite the fact that in the city of Khan Yunis the conflict continues between the resistance forces and the occupiers.” On the other hand, Palestinian resistance forces continue to confront the occupying forces in different directions of the Gaza Strip. In this regard, intense clashes between Palestinian fighters and elements of the aggressor occurred in the area of ​​Tel al-Zaatara, located in the Jabaliya camp in the north of the Gaza Strip, and the Sheikh Rezwan area in northwestern Gaza. At the same time, when the Zionist regime breached this barrier, it launched large-scale artillery attacks on the Sheikh Rizwan area in order to cover the Zionist elements. On the other hand, the Zionist occupiers, as in previous days, deliberately and systematically attacked various areas of the West Bank. These military elements attacked the city of Tulkarm, the Al-Khidr area, located west of the city of Bethlehem, and the Aqaba Jabr camp, located southwest of the city of Jericho. The occupying soldiers, along with military equipment, also attacked the houses of Palestinian citizens on Amman Street in Nablus. The Balata camp, located in the east of Nablus, also witnessed a massive attack by these Zionist soldiers, and a Palestinian youth was wounded by the bullets of these aggressors in the Balata camp. The bulldozers of the Zionist regime destroyed infrastructure and roads as soon as they entered this camp. In this regard, the Palestinian resistance forces in the city of Tulkarm encountered occupying elements who attacked the city and opened massive fire on them.

In a conversation with the Al-Mayadeen network, informed sources emphasized that Palestinian resistance forces in Nablus fired a wide range of bullets at Zionist forces in that city. Samer Khovere, an Arabic-language journalist, highlighted that the Zionist occupation forces tried to kill three members of the resistance forces in Nablus during a missile attack using a drone, but they ultimately failed to achieve their evil intention. The conflict between Palestinian fighters and elements of the aggressor spread to the Balata camp in Nablus, as a result of which the occupying vehicles in the area were attacked by throwing several grenades. The Quds Force announced on Friday that it had attacked two Zionist regime tanks on the Sheikh Rizwan axis in western Gaza with tandem anti-tank missiles. In recent days, the Zionists have been posing as Palestinian resistance forces, publishing photographs of Palestinian civilians in order to keep failures and high military casualties a secret!

Daniel Hagari, a spokesman for the Zionist regime's army, also acknowledged on Friday that the regime's forces had suffered serious and painful blows in the Gaza Strip. Hagari explained: “We paid a very high price in Gaza, but our goals, namely the destruction of Hamas and the return of prisoners, are fixed and we have no other choice.” In other news, the Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs Committee announced that the Zionist occupiers have increased pressure on prisoners in the Negev prison. This Palestinian committee highlighted that the Zionist regime prison guards in the Negev prison had completely cut off the electricity in that prison. The Committee for Palestinian Prisoners' Affairs added: “Prisoners in Al-Naqab Prison also have their water cut off and are only supplied with water for less than an hour during the day. The Zionist prison guards also reduced the prisoners' meals."
