A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Al Mayadeen's sources revealed on Sunday that the Israeli Occupation Forces had been deploying poison gas prior to their incursions into the Gaza Strip.

The source explained that the IOF had attempted to penetrate the Gaza Strip four hours after deploying the toxic gas, noting that this strategy was "used in the main areas of operation, specifically in Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun [Gaza]."

This comes after Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported that an Israeli infantry unit fell into an ambush set up by the Resistance in Soufa.

Our correspondent confirmed that "the Israeli infantry unit withdrew from Sofa after intense clashes with the Resistance that lasted for 3 hours."

Furthermore, the IOF's spokesperson announced that an Israeli officer was seriously injured as a result of the detonation of an explosive device and that another soldier was injured during confrontations in the northern Gaza Strip.

The Israeli land invasion waged against Gaza along three axes was driven back by the Resistance, which confirmed that the occupation's soldiers suffered casualties in the process.

The Resistance said that the enemy fell into "ambushes prepared by the Palestinian Resistance" and also noted that it expected the occupation to "attempt to invade Gaza again."

They might plan to blanket the area to kill as many as possible and claim Hamas necessitated it or even that the civilians were already dead, that they were all fighters who died against them or Hamas killed them. Whatever absurdity you like it's so ridiculous what they get away with. Or they could just deny the dead count as they've been doing so far, continue to isolate, cut off internet, take the bodies later and destroy them before any definitive evidence can be established.

This is so upsetting to watch and hear. I just feel so sick watching what I fear really is going to be a massacre. I hope the resistance is able to pull something off.

Have faith the resistance who has spent 17 years planning this tunnels studiously prepared for the possibility of nazis using gas.

I'm relieved to hear that. May they suffer a great humiliating defeat.

In the words of Abu Obeida "We tell the enemy who repeats his threats of a ground invasion every day that we are still waiting to make him taste new types (flavors) of death."
