In a statement released on Thursday morning, al-Qassam Brigades urged all resistance factions participating in the joint operations room to raise their military readiness to the highest level.

The Brigades warned that the occupation gangs would pay dearly for its persistence in committing daily crimes against the Palestinian people and their resistance.

Three resistance fighters from al-Qassam Brigades were killed and another one was injured when the zionists gangs launched an artillery attack on their observation post east of Gaza city. Later, one zionist soldier was reportedly wounded by Palestinian gunfire east of Gaza.

On the other hand, Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum on Wednesday said that zionist crimes and aggressions on the Palestinian people should not be met with silence.

Barhoum said in a statement on Twitter that Palestinian resistance factions in Gaza will spare no effort to protect Palestinian citizens and respond to any zionists aggression.
