The Qassam Battalion in Tal al-Hawa was at the forefront of the battalions fully engaged in fighting with the enemy 36th Armored Division, coming from the Juhr al-Dik axis.
The battalion's area of operations received preliminary fire and fire belts that turned every life therein into death, and every building therein into ruin.
But they fought very bravely..Fire was poured on the area like lava, until it was completely emptied of inhabitants.
After bloody days of fighting, and the enemy storming Al-Shifa Hospital, it was announced that the battalion would be disbanded, its commander killed, and its military council liquidated.
Indeed, the pace of fighting there receded, and the pace of resistance operations in the region declined significantly, especially after the enemy developed its attack towards the depths of Gaza City and its east. The enemy found comfort in the situation, used it as a gathering area for the forces, and a base from which to launch their attacks, and he firmly believed that after his withdrawal from it, he would return safely.
The enemy withdrew, but when he returned, something unthinkable happened. His forces were killed in a massive killing that dispelled the illusions that had been in his head during the 117 days of war.
In all objectivity, one can only express extreme astonishment at Al-Qassam’s superior abilities to reorganize its ranks and establish ambushes with such precision during this very short time!
The question: After the enemy took control of the region for 3 complete months, combing it stone by stone, and annihilating the forces defending it according to his claimed,
Who is fighting? Do you think they are the dead? Do the dead fight?
There is a simile borrowed by the Israeli army from its commanders..
Hamas is like a phoenix. Whenever you think you have eliminated it in an area, it emerges from the ashes and becomes stronger..
