The military spokesperson for the Al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Ubaida, confirmed that "our complex and special operation today in Rafah is a new affirmation of the enemy's failure against our resistance and a painful blow to its army, and we have more to come." He stated, "Our painful strikes against the enemy will continue everywhere it is present, and the occupying army will find nothing but death traps in any corner of our land, by God's will."
