ALBAWABA - A video message directed at the Lebanese resistance was published by the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), the Al-Qassam Brigades. The video, which was shown on Monday, shows wrecked Israeli armored vehicles and military vehicles near Rafah, which is in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.
An prior remark made by Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant to Israeli soldiers earlier this month is included in the video. In a statement, Gallant threatened to intensify confrontations with Hezbollah in Lebanon by stating that a tank departing Rafah might reach the Litani River.
After Gallant finishes speaking, the footage cuts to images of Israeli tanks and cars being shot down and destroyed in several Rafah fighting zones. More video shows the cars that have been wrecked being removed from the city.
Al-Qassam Brigades directly address the Lebanese Islamic Resistance in the video message, saying, "These are Gallant's armored vehicles coming out of Rafah, and we are confident that you will complete the mission."
As the film comes to an end, Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, declares, "You will have no tanks left."
Following an incident in Majdal Shams on Sunday evening, Israel's Security Cabinet gave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant the power to choose the timing and strategy of any operations on Hezbollah.
Twelve Druze people—mostly children—were murdered and over forty more injured on Saturday when a missile struck a football field in Majdal Shams, which is in the Syrian Golan Heights that is under occupation. Hezbollah has denied any role in the attack, despite the Israeli army's accusations and threats of revenge.
