TEHRAN- The Palestinian resistance has continued its attacks against Israeli forces and settlements, especially those close to the Gaza Strip amid the latest Israeli massacre against civilians.

The ongoing attacks on the 12th day of the war came after an Israeli air strike hit the al-Ahli Al-Arabi Hospital in Gaza City, killing hundreds of civilians.

More than 5,000 Israeli air strikes on the now completely blockaded Gaza Strip have failed to end the Palestinian rocket fire. 

Palestinians launched a barrage of rockets towards the Nirim settlement located about 7 kilometers east of Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip.

Rockets were fired at a gathering of Israeli soldiers in the Kissufim settlement in the central east of the Gaza Strip. 

Sirens sounded in the Nahal Oz settlement near Gaza City as well as in the Sderot settlement. 

The al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, later announced that it had bombed a gathering of the occupation's regime vehicles in the Nahal Oz settlement. 

The al-Qassam Brigades announced that it had "targeted a crowd of occupation soldiers near the Nir Am settlement (located north off the Gaza Strip) with a missile salvo."

By Wednesday afternoon, sirens once again rang out in the settlements of Sderot and Nir Am and Nahal Oz. 

Earlier, missiles were launched toward Tel Aviv before U.S. President Joe Biden's trip there, with Israeli media reporting the sounds of explosions, described as "very large," and the fall of a missile without the activation of sirens.

Israeli media reported that after a recent salvo of missiles on Gush Dan and Shephelah, "flights at Ben Gurion Airport were (once again) temporarily suspended." 

The al-Qassam Brigades announced a fresh bombing wave directed at a gathering of the occupation’s soldiers in the Eshkol complex southeast of the Gaza Strip, and another gathering in Kfar Aza, northeast of the coastal strip with rockets and mortar shells.

A missile salvo was also fired at the occupation's forces at the Nevatim Israeli Air Force Base located southeast of the Beersheba settlement, in addition to the bombing of the Ashdod and Ashkelon settlements, 

Separately, in a joint operation by Palestinian factions, which did not involve Hamas, a missile was fired toward the settlement of Beersheba in response to the occupation regime’s massacres.
In a video posted on social media, the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad warned the Zionist regime that it will meet the "Israeli escalation" with its own "escalation,".

In the occupied West Bank, resistance factions fired at the occupation army’s positions as well as settlements surrounding the cities of Tulkarm, Jenin, and Nablus. 

Israeli media confirmed that more than half a million settlers have been displaced from their settlements since the beginning of the al-Aqsa Storm Operation and that this figure had sharply increased by Wednesday.  
Hamas has accused the U.S. of complicity in Israeli war crimes and of being "blindly biased to Israel" after Joe Biden said it appeared Israel was not behind the bombing of a hospital in Gaza.
