Since the first moments of the 7 October raid, the Palestinian resistance has published combat videos offering a unique view of the battle in defense of Gaza. We see fighters moving through the streets and buildings of Gaza, utilizing an arsenal of weaponry that has been built and adapted in the Gaza Strip.

On this week’s livestream I looked into the US military’s plan to erect a floating pier at an as yet undetermined spot on the Mediterranean coast in Gaza. I talked about how that pier may line up with the Israeli military’s ongoing establishment of a “highway” across the Gaza Strip, separating the north from the south.

On our recent livestream episode, I covered the battles in defense of Khan Younis and the fierce fight in Zeitoun, Gaza City. I also analyzed some of the combat videos that were published this past week. The Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, released a video of what the group said was its 34th sniper operation using the al-Ghoul anti-materiel rifle, named after the founder of the Qassam weapons industry, Adnan al-Ghoul.

We take a look at the events of October 7th on the heels of an Israeli media report that broke down the raid into a minute-by-minute timeline from Israeli military and intelligence sources who participated in the battle that left the IDF broken and its soldiers captured.

This war has been recorded on video from the moment it began at sunrise on 7 October. Palestinian fighters and Israeli soldiers wear body cameras and have camera persons embedded in units. During our regular Electronic Intifada livestream, we analyze the footage from both the Palestinian fighters and Israeli military forces invading Gaza. Last month, a resistance tunnel was found by the Israeli military. It was a massive tunnel, large enough to drive cars and trucks through.
