Palestinian fighters targeted four Israeli tanks during intense fighting that is ongoing in southern Gaza.

The Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military arm, said fighters successfully targeted two Merkava tanks with two Yassin 105 rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) in the Jourat al-Aqqad area, west of Khan Younis city.

Two other Merkava tanks were hit by RPGs in the al-Amal neighbourhood where some of the most serious ground fighting is happening.

Hamas released a video on Saturday night showing its soldiers attacking Israeli tanks and bulldozers.
