Hamas deploys fighters to protect construction site in north Gaza

The military wing of Hamas deployed several fighters north of Gaza on Sunday to protect a construction site after the Israeli army fired at the bulldozers building a road there. According to a witness, the Israelis were targeting the heavy machinery working along the security fence, reported Quds Press.

“Shortly after the shooting,” said the witness, “a number of fighters from Al-Qassam Brigades arrived in military vehicles.”

Work has started recently to build a road parallel to the security fence along the eastern border of the Gaza Strip under the supervision of the military wing. Nobody from Al-Qassam Brigades has commented on or announced this officially.
