Gaza Resistance Movements
GAZA – Gaza-based resistance movements on Wednesday slammed the Zionist regime for "escalating its offensive policies” towards the besieged territory after the occupying regime’s military carried out overnight attacks on targets of the enclave.
"Israel’s continued escalation against Gaza means that the occupation is determined to press ahead with its policies and crimes, but this shall not derail Palestinians from their struggle to protect its rights and freedom,” Fawzi Barhoum, spokesperson for Hamas, said in a press statement.
"The unfair blockade imposed by the occupation on over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza aims at destroying the livelihoods of its people and isolate them politically, socially and geographically,” the statement added.
Meanwhile, Dawood Shihab, the Islamic Jihad official, told reporters that the Zionist regime’s raids "will not succeed in halting the Palestinian resistance against the siege and the Israeli assaults.”
The Zionist regime said it carried out overnight attacks in the Gaza Strip, with no immediate reports of casualties. The regime conducted attacks on at least three sites in the Gaza Strip early on Wednesday.
The Palestinian sources say the occupying regime’s aircraft also fired missiles at positions in al-Nahda neighborhood, near the international airport in the southern city of Rafah.
The occupying regime’s army on Wednesday claimed the attacks were in response to the floating of multiple fire balloons from the blockaded enclave in recent days.
The Zionist regime launches strikes against positions in the blockaded enclave, accusing the resistance groups there of launching rockets.
Gaza has been under siege by the regime since June 2007. The regime has launched three major wars against the enclave since 2008, killing thousands of Gazans each time and shattering the impoverished territory’s already poor infrastructure.
The crippling blockade has caused a decline in the standard of living as well as unprecedented levels of unemployment and unrelenting poverty in the Gaza Strip.
The attack came a day after the Zionist regime shut down the Gaza Strip’s crossing that hosts most imports into the besieged territory as a punitive measure against alleged launches of "incendiary balloons” from the Palestinian enclave towards the occupied territories.
The Kerem Shalom Crossing was closed on Tuesday after at least four rounds of aerial and ground attacks against the territory under the same pretext.
Before closing the terminal, the regime claimed that more than 30 fires had erupted across Gaza near the occupied territories as a result of the alleged balloon launch, Reuters reported.
"Kerem Shalom Crossing will be closed for the passage of all goods, with the exception of the entry of essential humanitarian equipment and fuel,” the Zionist regime’s war ministry said in a statement.
