This includes the destruction of 54 Merkava tanks in 52 days

It is being called the “massacre of tanks.”  The destructive toll of Israeli tanks and military vehicles Al Qassam Brigades inflicted in the northern Gaza Strip over the past 52 day has reached reached 110.

Hamas and other Palestinian groups have been in the forefront of a battle

against the Israeli occupation army in the northern Gaza since 5 October, and despite the stifling Israeli siege and the violent bombardment of the area that does not stop day and night, and squadrons of drones over the skies of the area.

 Despite this however, Palestinian  resistance fighters succeeded in carrying out dozens of attacks on the occupation forces.

Al Jazeera monitored  the  military statements of the Qassam Brigades since the beginning of the Israeli military operation and showed the Qassam Brigades targeted 54 Merkava tanks, 27 armored personnel carriers, 26 military bulldozers (D9), and 3 Hummer jeeps.

According to the Hamas data, Al Qassam fighters carried out 40 attacks on Israeli vehicles with Yassin 105 shells, 39 attacks with explosive devices, and 13 attacks with tandem shells.

Qassam fighters pursued Israeli tanks and vehicles in Jabalia city and camp, Beit Lahia, Beit Hanoun, Al-Tawam area, Tel al-Zaatar, Al-Fallujah, Al-Saftawi Junction, Al-Hawoz Al-Turki area, Al-Qassasib neighborhood, eastern cemetery of Gaza City, Al-Khazindar area, Al-Atatra, and the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood.

On 5 October, the occupation army began a ground invasion of the northern Gaza Strip under the pretext of “preventing Hamas from regaining its strength in the area.” The Palestinians say Israel wants to occupy the northern Gaza Strip and turn it into a buffer zone after displacing its residents.

With American support, Israel has been waging a war on the Gaza Strip since 7 October, 2023, which has left more than 146,000 Palestinian martyrs and wounded – most of them children and women – and more than 10,000 missing, amid massive destruction and famine that has killed dozens of children and elderly people, in one of the worst humanitarian disasters in the world.
