Al-Qassam Brigades Announce Complex Ambush on Israeli Forces in Rafah
The Brigades announced that they were responsible for carrying out a complex military operation targeting Israeli occupation forces in Rafah, southern Gaza Strip.
Palestine, PUREWILAYAH.COM - The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, announced on Thursday that they were responsible for carrying out a complex military operation targeting Israeli occupation forces in Rafah, southern Gaza Strip.
In a military communiqué, the Brigades stated:
“Following their return from the frontlines, our fighters confirmed the execution of a complex operation on Al-Tayaran Street in the Tel al-Sultan neighborhood, west of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, on the afternoon of Friday, April 27, 2025.”
Israeli Convoy Ambushed with Explosives and Close-Range Engagement
According to the statement, Al-Qassam fighters successfully lured an Israeli armored force—consisting of four Hummer military jeeps and one military truck identified as an ‘Amolisia’—into a well-prepared ambush.
The unit was targeted with several Shawaz explosive devices and martyrdom operations, after which a number of fighters advanced toward the remaining Israeli soldiers and engaged in close-range combat, resulting in multiple Israeli casualties, both killed and wounded.
Multiple Ambushes in Recent Days
Over the past several days, the Al-Qassam Brigades have announced a series of ambushes against Israeli occupation forces throughout the Gaza Strip.
These operations, according to the group, have inflicted numerous casualties among Israeli troops, as confrontations between resistance fighters and occupation forces continue amid Israel’s ongoing military aggression on Gaza. (PW)
