An insurgency began in northern Gaza, centred around besieged Gaza city after Israel announced it had dismantled 12 Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades battalions on 7 January.[1][2][3]

Several paramilitary groups, led by the Al-Qassam Brigades began resurging in territories formerly cleared, demonstrating Israel's failure to fully subdue the north after 4 months of bombardment and 3 months of ground invasion.

Course of the insurgency

Palestinian brigades organised and consolidated areas that Israeli forces had withdrawn from, and rehabilitated civilian services such as police forces.[4]

The brigades launched offensives on areas in the northern Gaza Strip held by Israeli occupation. As a result, Israeli troops moved into areas that they have previously withdrawn from.[5] A Namer APC repositioning in Sheikh Radwan on 19 January was ambused by a militant with a dual attack, first by a shawadh IED detonation succeeded by a Yasin-105 rocket-propelled grenade fired by a Al-Qassam Brigade militants.[6] Al-Qassam brigades ambushed Israeli forces in the Tel al-Hawa neighbourhood on 31 January, targeting two tanks, damaging one and an IDF Caterpillar D9.[7]

Israeli operations

Zeitoun operation

In late February, Israeli forces targeted the Zeitoun district in southwestern Gaza City with two brigades, announcing they were attacking paramilitaries in close quarters combat and with missile strikes.

The Israeli army acknowledged stiff resistance from paramilitaries in Zeitoun but not while Israeli vehicles advanced on the district, admitting casualties in three different engagements on penetrating forces on February 21. Fighting was mainly led by the Qassam and Quds brigades, with minor support from smaller paramilitary groups.[8]

On 17 March 2024, Israeli forces raided Rimal and occupied Al-Shifa hospital following supposed intel that senior Hamas officials had regrouped and were using the hospital "to command attacks".[9]
