Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, destroyed one Israeli tank and showered Israeli troops with projectiles in eastern Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, on Tuesday.
In a communiqué, al-Qassam Brigades said that one Merkava tank burst into flames after it was attacked with one Yassin 105 projectile, amid clashes with Israeli soldiers barricaded inside a nearby building in ash-Shuka neighborhood, east of Rafah.
Resistance fighters from the Brigades also fired barrages of Rajum missiles and mortar shells at gatherings of Israeli troops and vehicles in eastern Rafah.
A similar missile attack targeted the Israeli occupation forces at the Karam Abu Salem military site.
