Al-Qasaam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas, and Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of Islamic Jihad, pledged on Sunday to deter bombers that targeted six of their vehicles in the north of Gaza City.

In a joint statement reported by Quds Press, the two military wings said: “Such dirty acts will not end our role in protecting our nation, defending our land and preparing for a major confrontation with our enemy.”

The statement added: “Our enemy is known and those who attempt to spoil our efforts in fighting the occupation will be disappointed.”

Regarding the bombings, the statement said: “Such aggressive acts bear only one title: carrying out the goals of the occupation.” It also said that the perpetrators of such acts are “traitors.”

According to the statement, the bombings were carried out on the first anniversary of the Israeli war on Gaza in order to tar the memory of “the heroic legendary achievements carried out by the Palestinian resistance during that barbaric war.”

In the early morning of Sunday, six timed explosions targeted six vehicles belonging to the military wings of Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza City. No human casualties were reported.
