In a statement, it said its fighters launched a “complex operation in Rafah’s al-Shaboura camp” using “various types of weapons” to inflict losses among Israeli forces, Al Jazeera reported.

Soon after the raid and upon the arrival of a backup rescue force, the group said its fighters detonated explosive devices against two armored military vehicles.

“A fire is still burning in the building,” the statement said, adding that clashes are ongoing in the nearby al-Najaila area.
