Al-Qassam Brigades' Disturbing VIDEO Shows Israeli Troops Trapped & Bombed Near Khan Younis

The Al-Qassam and Al-Aqsa Brigades launched a brutal joint assault on Israeli troops in Khan Younis, using short-range rockets and 60mm mortar shells to pound IDF positions. Footage shows Israeli soldiers trapped under relentless fire in Kaf al-Qarara. These attacks are part of a renewed wave of ambushes and explosive tactics. Despite intense Israeli offensives, Hamas reportedly retains a force of 20,000 fighters and remains operationally strong across Gaza, continuing to challenge IDF advances on multiple fronts. #Hamas #AlQassamBrigades #AlAqsaBrigades #IDF #GazaWar #KhanYounis #IsraelGazaConflict #RocketAttack #MortarStrike #AmbushTactics #MiddleEastConflict #BreakingNews #IDFUnderFire #GazaFighting #PalestineResistance #MilitaryClashes #GazaStrip #HamasAttack #IsraelUnderFire #WarFootage #TerrorOrResistance #QassamVsIDF #CombatFootage #LiveCombat #GazaNews #TrappedSoldiers #ExplosiveTactics #AlQudsBrigades #WarInGaza Also Read Hamas Leader Muhammad Sinwar Killed In Israel's Air Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-leader-muhammad-sinwar-killed-in-israels-air-strike-4156915.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Launches Hamas-Style Missile Attack on Jammu; All Intercepted By Indian Air Defence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-launches-hamas-style-missile-attack-on-jammu-all-intercepted-by-indian-air-defence-4147919.html?ref=DMDesc

Booby-Trapped House Erupts in Flames: IDF Troops Killed in Ruthless Ambush |RPGs, Thaqeb  Bombs Used [Video]

Booby-Trapped House Erupts in Flames: IDF Troops Killed in Ruthless Ambush |RPGs, Thaqeb Bombs Used

A deadly ambush in eastern Khan Younis has left multiple Israeli soldiers dead after Palestinian resistance fighters detonated powerful explosives inside a booby-trapped house. Al-Quds Brigades and Islamic Jihad forces launched coordinated strikes using RPGs, barrel bombs, and the devastating “Thaqeb” device to destroy Israeli armor, including a Merkava tank. The Israeli military scrambled helicopters for evacuation under heavy fire as reinforcements came under attack. This marks a major escalation in guerrilla-style warfare inside Gaza, with Palestinian factions warning of more complex and lethal operations ahead. The IDF has acknowledged rising casualties—but Palestinian sources claim the real numbers are much higher.

Iran Says 935 Killed In IDF’s Airstrikes |Israeli Claims Considered ‘False’ After Iran’s Death Toll? [Video]

Iran Says 935 Killed In IDF’s Airstrikes |Israeli Claims Considered ‘False’ After Iran’s Death Toll?

Iran’s judiciary has reported that 935 people were killed during the 12-day Israeli aerial bombardment, according to forensics data cited by state media. Among the dead are 132 women and 38 children, indicating the significant civilian toll. The Israeli military has stated it targeted Iranian military leaders, nuclear scientists, and facilities, including suspected nuclear development sites. While Israel claims its strikes were strategic and defense-oriented, Iranian officials have condemned them as indiscriminate and brutal, escalating tensions in an already fragile region. The death toll adds weight to calls for international accountability and raises questions about the conduct of war and proportionality in military engagements. The 12-day conflict marked one of the most intense escalations between the two nations, with ripple effects across the Middle East. As both countries navigate the aftermath, Iran is pushing for diplomatic and legal responses while also reinforcing its defense capabilities. #Iran #Israel #MiddleEastConflict #Airstrikes #CivilianCasualties #IranIsraelWar #BreakingNews #IranJudiciary #AsgharJahangir #MilitaryTension #NuclearStrike #IsraelAirForce #ProIranCoverage #UNResponse #HumanRights #WarCrimes #MiddleEastNews #WomenAndChildrenKilled #TelAviv #IranianDefense Also Read Mumbai Reports First Death Due To Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), Toll Raises To 8 :: https://www.oneindia.com/mumbai/mumbai-reports-first-death-due-to-guillain-barr-syndrome-gbs-toll-raises-to-8-4068983.html?ref=DMDesc Maharashtra Ordnance Factory Blast: Death Toll Rises To 8; Rajnath Singh, Gadkari Express Condolence :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/maharashtra-ordnance-factory-blast-death-toll-rises-to-8-rajnath-singh-gadkari-express-condolence-4051689.html?ref=DMDesc Jalgaon Train Accident: Revised Death Toll Reaches 12, Seven Victims Identified as Nepalese :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/jalgaon-train-accident-toll-revised-to-12-seven-nepalese-victims-011-4051165.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.125~
