Tehran, IRNA – Anti-Israeli operation in the port city of Ashdod in western occupied Palestine has left one Zionist killed and five others wounded, media outlets have reported.

According to a Wednesday report by Palestinian Safa news agency, a heroic anti-Zionist operation was carried out in the port city of Ashdod in the western occupied Palestine.

As a result of the operation, one Israeli police officer was killed while five Zionists were injured.

Zionist media have reported that the shooter has been martyred by the Israeli police.

In a statement on Tuesday, the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas praised the anti-Zionist operation in the port city of Ashdod in western occupied Palestine, considering the operation as a demonstration of the strength of the Palestinian resistance.

Hamas described the shooting near the occupied Ashdod as a natural reaction to the actions of the occupiers and an affirmation of the continuation and intensification of the resistance's actions despite all security measures. 

The Palestinian resistance movement emphasized that such an operation in the heart of occupied territories demonstrates the ability of the resistance to harm the enemy.

The total death toll from the Israeli war on Gaza has climbed to 42,289 since the start of the conflict on October 7, 2023, the Health Ministry in Gaza has announced.

The death toll from Israel’s yearlong war on Gaza is likely far higher with thousands of bodies buried in the rubble of the vast destruction throughout the Palestinian territory.
