Multiple Zionist media platforms on Tuesday reported a security incident in the al-Shujaiya neighborhood, east of Gaza City in the northern Gaza Strip, confirming preliminary reports regarding casualties among Israeli occupation forces.
According to reports in the Gaza Strip, Zionist tanks and artillery shelled both al-Shujaiya and al-Tuffah neighborhoods on Tuesday evening. The escalation followed reports of a direct security incident involving occupation forces in the area.
Occupation helicopters opened heavy fire across al-Shujaiya, while warplanes carried out intense air raids simultaneously, according to field updates. The sustained bombardment came after resilient resistance operations against the occupation forces.
IED explosion kills three Zionist soldiers in Jabalia
The Zionist occupation army acknowledged earlier on Tuesday the deaths of three soldiers in the northern Gaza Strip, following operations by Palestinian resistance groups, who continue to carry out ambushes and targeted strikes.
Zionist Channel 12 confirmed that the three soldiers were killed in an improvised explosive device (IED) attack in Jabalia yesterday. The outlet noted that the evacuation operation was prolonged and took place amid ongoing confrontations, during which several more Zionist soldiers were injured.
The latest developments underscore the intensifying pace of Gaza resistance operations, particularly in the north.
Zionist casualties in al-Shujaiya and the IED attack in Jabalia reflect the continued ability of Palestinian fighters to inflict losses despite the ongoing aerial and ground assault by the occupation forces.
Zionist soldiers killed, injured in Jabalia ambush
On a related note, Zionist media reported on Monday evening that several occupation soldiers were killed and injured in a serious security incident in the Jabalia area of northern Gaza. According to initial reports, a Zionist military Humvee was struck with an anti-tank missile, resulting in at least two fatalities and multiple injuries.
The incident occurred amid an ongoing confrontation in the area, with Zionist media describing it as part of a broader “ongoing event” involving heavy resistance engagement.
Attempts by occupation forces to evacuate the dead and wounded were reportedly thwarted by intense gunfire, further escalating the confrontation.
In an official statement, the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, confirmed their fighters were involved in point-blank engagement with Zionist soldiers east of the Jabalia refugee camp, asserting that they inflicted direct casualties on the advancing forces.
