Al-Quds Brigades announce bombing of Sderot city with rockets UPDATE: IDF announce they airstruck rocketeers dead
2025-07-04
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
 movement, announced Wednesday morning that it had targeted the city of Sderot in the southern occupied territories with a barrage of rockets in response to the Israeli occupation's ongoing crimes in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
The brigades confirmed that the bombing, using ''precision missiles,'' was part of the ''Al-Aqsa Flood'' operation, which began on October 7, 2023.
Of course they did. Then the IDF declared the area where the rocket launchers were as off limits, and warned the residents to leave for the safe enclaves, lest they get caught in the IDF’s latest clearance operation. In the meantime, the IDF shot down the rockets or watched them fall harmlessly in Israeli fields, in the Mediterranean, or somewhere in Gaza, upon which Hamas blamed the resulting deaths on the eeeeeeevil IDF.
This attack is part of a series of rocket attacks by the Paleostinian resistance against occupation sites in response to the escalating aggression and the targeting of civilians and infrastructure in Gaza, particularly following the massacres in the Zeitoun and Shuja'iyya neighborhoods.
No doubt Hamas feels better for having shot their wad, as the cannoneers used to say, however ineffectually.
The situation in Gaza is witnessing a major escalation with the continued resistance attacks on the advancing Israeli occupation forces through ground ambushes and intensive shelling.

Update from the Times of Israel at 2:10 p.m. EDT:
IDF says Gaza terrorists behind Wednesday rocket fire killed in drone strike

The IDF says the Gaza terror cell responsible for yesterday’s rocket fire at Sderot and Ibim was “eliminated” in a drone strike just minutes after the launch from northern Gaza.

Separately, it says troops across multiple divisions have continued to operate in the Strip.

Troops of the 162nd Division have targeted terrorists and underground infrastructure in the north, it says, while the 188th Armored Brigade in the south recently uncovered rifles, pistols, magazines, and mortars in the Khan Younis area.

Over the past 24 hours, the Israeli Air Force struck around 150 targets, including underground routes, military structures, sniper positions, and other terror infrastructure, the military says.

The IDF says its operations, carried out with intelligence from the Shin Bet and Military Intelligence Directorate, aim to eliminate threats against Israeli civilians.
