After 233 days of aggression, the resistance continued to carry out significant operations against the occupying forces infiltrating the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip entered its 233rd day, with continued criminal operations against civilians in the besieged Strip through intensified airstrikes, particularly in the north, resulting in dozens of martyrs and injuries.

The resistance remained on alert. Despite the long duration of the aggression and the occupation's full efforts to destroy Gaza, Abu Obaida, the spokesperson for Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced a significant operation on the 233rd day.

He stated that a well-planned ambush had lured an "Israeli" military force into a tunnel in Jabalia camp, resulting in deaths and prisoners among the enemy.

Abu Ubaida added that the occupation government persisted in its blind, chaotic policy of revenge and destruction, moving from one failure to another, with the latest failures occurring in Jabalia and Rafah.

He mentioned that the occupation forces searched for the remains of their soldiers for Netanyahu's personal schemes and assured that Qassam fighters continued to teach the occupation harsh lessons in combat zones.

The occupation, however, denied these claims, asserting that no new abduction operation had taken place, despite the resistance's release of video footage supporting their statement.

-The negotiations remained a cloudy-

Hamas leader Osama Hamdan commented on the new negotiations reported by Hebrew media, following Netanyahu's directive to his negotiating team to resume talks with Hamas for a prisoner exchange.

In statements to Al Jazeera on Saturday, Hamdan said the negotiations aimed to stop the aggression, lift the siege, and achieve a fair exchange deal. He noted that the movement had not been informed by mediators about any new negotiation developments, suggesting that the talk of new negotiations was not serious.

Hamdan emphasized that the movement did not need new negotiations and had already responded to the mediators' proposal, highlighting that the Israeli Occupation tried to evade the obligations of the International Court of Justice.
