PALESTINIAN RESISTANCE FIGHTERS REPEL ISRAELI GROUND INVASION OF GAZA


Palestinian Resistance Fighters Repel Israeli Ground Invasion of Gaza

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Palestinian Islamic resistance movement Hamas revealed “the failure of the Zionist enemy’s attempts to invade Gaza through a ground assault”, stating that the Israeli military fell into ambushes prepared by the Palestinian resistance fighters on multiple fronts. 

Ali Baraka, a senior Hamas representative based in Lebanon discussed the Israeli enemy's failed ground attack, reporting heavy losses among the Israeli forces in terms of soldiers and equipment. He pointed out that the Palestinian resistance had prepared ambushes on multiple fronts and had defensive plans in place from the beginning of the battle.


He added that they have successfully repelled the attack by using Kornet and Yassin missiles.

Hamas's armed wing had previously announced that its fighters were confronting an Israeli ground incursion in Beit Hanoon and east Bureij, with violent engagements occurring on the ground. The Israeli army responded with increased strikes, and the Qassam Brigades fired salvos of rockets.

In a statement, Ezzat al-Rashq, a senior Hamas official, emphasized Palestinian forces' determination to resist Zionist aggressions and thwart any invasion by the Israeli regime's army. He highlighted the readiness of the Al-Qassam Brigades and all Palestinian resistance forces to confront aggressions with great strength.


Also, Osama Hamdan, another senior Hamas representative in Lebanon, shed light on the Israeli occupation's actions, stating, "What the occupation is doing tonight in Gaza is an attempt to create an image of victory."

In the late hours of Friday night, he predicted that with the break of dawn, the world would witness the heroic achievements of Palestinian resistance fighters in the battle of Gaza.

“Israel claimed that the operation was not a planned ground assault to avoid a dire and embarrassing situation in case of failure,” Hamdan added.


However, the Israeli military spokesman Major Nir Dinar claimed on Saturday that the regime's troops were continuing their ground operations inside the Gaza Strip, stating, "Our troops are operating inside Gaza as they did yesterday."

The Israeli army also announced the name of another soldier killed in the attack, Sergeant Shirel Haim Pour, bringing the total number of Israeli soldiers killed in the attack to 310, according to the army.

The Israeli attacks have killed at least 7,326 Palestinian civilians in Gaza since October 7.

Poll: US Public Support for Israel Wanes as 68 Percent Call for Ceasefire

  TEHRAN (FNA)- Israel’s war on Gaza is upsetting many Americans who think it must follow growing demands for an immediate ceasefire, according to a new poll. The Reuters/Ipsos survey found only 32 percent of respondents said “the US should support Israel”. That is down from 41 percent from a poll conducted on October 12-13 – just days after the war broke out. About 68 percent of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate”. Some 39 percent supported the idea “the US should be a neutral mediator”, compared with 27 percent a month earlier. Only 4 percent of respondents said the United States should support Palestinians, while 15 percent said the US shouldn’t be involved at all in the war. While the US has been a significant Israeli ally, just 31 percent of respondents said they supported sending Israel weapons. The plunge in support fol

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time. He also said that the two sides “held a separate
