Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, said that its fighters destroyed completely or partially 43 Israeli armored vehicles, including tanks, in the last few days on different combat fronts of the Gaza Strip.
In a statement, spokesman for the Brigades Abu Obeida said that al-Qassam fighters recently killed dozens of Israeli soldiers during 17 military operations across Gaza, including 15 Israeli soldiers who were killed at point-blank range, adding that another officer and a soldier were taken down by sniper fire.
Abu Obeida also said that al-Qassam fighters used different weapons in their attacks on the invading Israeli troops and their vehicles, including mortar shells, rockets, explosive devices, and anti-armor and anti-personnel projectiles.
Al-Qassam fighters also ambushed and eliminated a number of Israeli soldiers by detonating the entrance of a tunnel, seized four military drones, and fired a volley of rockets at Tel Aviv and areas around it.
