ALBAWABA - In a significant development, the Israeli army has reported that Hamas successfully repelled an attempted ground incursion by Israeli forces, including armored units, into the Gaza Strip.

This operation was launched within the last 24 hours, seemingly in preparation for a potential ground assault. This development comes amidst a series of intensive rocket attacks on Israeli territories as part of the ongoing "Tofan Al-Aqsa" conflict.

On another front, images have emerged depicting the interactions between Al-Qassam Brigades fighters and children during the initial stages of the "Tofan Al-Aqsa" operation, specifically in Kibbutz "Hulit."

Meanwhile, the Al-Qassam Brigades have responded to the displacement of civilians and attacks on non-combatants by targeting "Tel Aviv" with rocket fire.

They have also conducted rocket barrages on the gatherings of Israeli occupation forces in the northeastern Gaza region's "Jaffar Ammar" area.

The enemy's communication system to the east of "Raeem" was not spared either, as it was targeted with rocket fire. The northern Zionist leadership headquarters in occupied Safed was also a focal point, as the Al-Qassam Brigades fired a missile known as "Ayyash 250" at this location.
