Al-Qassam Brigades spokesman Abu Ubaida provided information and assessments about the field conflicts in the audio recording that was published on Hamas’s Telegram account.
At the beginning of his speech, Abu Ubaida stated that the Al-Qassam Brigades have been continuing their defensive operations against the Israeli forces for 42 days.
Abu Ubaida stated that 62 Israeli military vehicles, including Merkava tanks, troop carriers and bulldozers, were destroyed during the past four days, and the buildings in which Israeli soldiers were hiding were targeted with bombs and snipers, and at least 9 Israeli soldiers were killed in two separate operations that took place. 3 days ago, it was reported that a building in Beit Hanoun was destroyed the previous day and Israeli soldiers inside it were killed and wounded.
Abu Ubaida said that they are preparing themselves for a long and continuous defense, and said that every moment that Israeli forces spend in Gaza will mean a loss for them.
The Israeli leaders decided to sacrifice the prisoners
In his speech before the Tel Aviv administration, Abu Ubaida said that the number of Israeli soldiers killed was much higher than expected.
Abu Ubaida pointed out that the Al-Qassam Brigades reiterated its call for a prisoner exchange agreement since the beginning of the attacks, explaining that Israel decided to sacrifice the prisoners.
Abu Ubaida stated that they struggled to keep the prisoners alive, and that they sometimes succeeded and sometimes failed because of the attacks.
Netanyahu is chasing the mirage in Al-Shifa Hospital
Abu Ubaida said that while the resistance forces were fighting in the field and causing casualties among the Israeli forces, the Israeli army was killing women and children, attacking hospitals with “baseless allegations” and committing war crimes.
Abu Ubaida, who described Prime Minister Netanyahu and his “cowardly” soldiers’ search for the Shifa Hospital (resistance forces) as “ridiculous” and likened it to “chasing a mirage,” said that this situation reveals Israel’s arrogance and at the same time its impotence.
Abu Ubaida said: “The Israeli army’s entry into Al-Shifa Hospital with tanks is the greatest evidence of its failure and the shame of human rights defenders.” He said.
