Where there are Israeli forces, there will be resistance, with Jon Elmer

and of course the main area that we've been following for a number of weeks now is the narim corridor and we're calling it the narim corridor because that's the name of the settlement that's the name that the Israelis uh called it uh at the time and so the Palestinians call it Street 10 but when it's an occupier creating a highway for their troops to access uh the pier uh we're going to go with the name of the settler um because the the Palestinians didn't choose this they um so the name of narim corridor is what we use to follow this the Palestinians call it Street number 10 if you're looking on maps um and the Israelis I think call it Highway 749 um and so their troops have been stationed along this Corridor that's the only place inside Gaza that they have been for the last number of weeks and so of course just like anywhere in the West Bank or Gaza wherever the IDF is present there's resistance and so the resistance is in narim Corridor let's look at number seven here tomorrow because this is a cassam BRI Gades Al goul sniper attack on an IDF position in the nerim corridor we're looking at triangles pointing at soldiers in a window we're still seeing soldiers in a window we're still seeing soldiers using curtains to to think that moving curtains back and forth is somehow keeping them protected um and we're watching a Kasam sniper team in teoh Howa this is uh GA south of Gaza City in the tel howan neighborhood and there we're watching another medical evacuation well within range not being targeted that's well within mortar range well within sniper range and again we're not seeing the cassam Bri Gades Target medical evacuations we can Loop this one jaria um not targeting medical evacuations the most obvious example of that was during the conun Ambush uh a month ago um when we watched on film dozens of soldiers being evacuated from that attack uh and and we know Kasam was in position because we watched the Ambush uh but they didn't Target the medical evacuation um so uh that is something we have also been following throughout this war um let's go one more time through it too tomorrow because the the AL operations always have so many details in them to notice the way the fighter is set up um the way the Israelis are using this position as a b you can clearly see the soldiers there um they're obviously a little more concerned than they used to be they don't gather on the roof and stand around and talk anymore on the roof um and also just to also note that this is once again an a an a video that we have edited out uh the hit we edited out the hit so that we can keep these videos and these shows on the air um but that Soldier was hit and that's his medical evacuation and that is one of 50 aloul sniper attacks um that have been carried out there was also a Sarah Al Good's sniper attack this week east of shaja so we're seeing snipers we're seeing Rockets because the forces aren't on the ground the ground war aspect of this fight is currently on hold and it's in the Eastern edge of Rafa just in the beginnings just in the last 12 hours their um IDF armor moved into the Eastern not even into the Eastern but moved forward into Gaza and our station right now on the outer edge of the Eastern edge of Rafa um and so this week's videos are focused on sniper attacks rocket attacks and this these are mortar attacks so let's look at number eight here tomorrow this is mortar attacks against the narim corridor um these are excavators that are carrying out the uh operations there's two operations happening on narim Corridor the Israelis are attempting to build a permanent military base um in that in that Corridor because they're losing the war they want to have a position inside Gaza to at least partition um to at least partition Gaza uh because they're unable to hold territory in any other place we're watching a heavy mortar being fired here Kasam makes these mortars they began uh they put mortars into service in 2000 at the beginning of the second inata and these mortars were used against settlements in the Gaza Strip so the fighters are well aware of how to use these uh mortars to Target and so this is um what these excavators that are doing this work building um building the Israeli base and building the highway as they call it uh which will be a tank Road um down to the US Pier that's on the shore so if you look at these we've seen these vehicles be hit before in the war I wanted to show you guys what it looked like up close it's kind of like a Mad Max vehicle um that the Israeli is the only country in the world that needs um to have these kind of engineering equipment this up armored engineering equipment um that they use most commonly in the West Bank to destroy houses we saw them use it in tarum over the last uh over last weekend when they used a tactic that they call the pressure cooker which basically means um they destroy a house around the a civilian home around uh the fighters that are inside um it's a pressure cooker only in the sense that they murder you U by collapsing all of the walls around you one by one they start with anti-tank rockets that they use on buildings and then they use this excavator um I think there's another one another shot of the excavator too as well um yeah it's a massive um and you can see it up armored all the way across um and these are used for digging out the tunnels they're used for digging out the tunnel entrances which we've only seen them do one or two times um to comprehensively dig it out they've pretty much stopped the tunnel operations at all um but they're used for building the fortifications they work with the D9 bulldozers and these are caterpillar um these are Caterpillar excavators built in Poria Illinois um they are on the BDS um the boycott divestment and sanctions list of course um because this is an American company giving Israelis uh these kind of armored excavators that are used in house demolitions um and along this Corridor we can go to the next one tomorrow along this Corridor I'm going to show you this video here this is showing what we just saw now watch it again um now that we know what those excavators look like we can see the red triangles over the two Israeli soldiers and you can see the excavator arms moving that's a 120 mm uh mortar that's a heavy mortar it's called a bomb the actual uh launcher is called the mortar um what's fired out of it is called a bomb so that mortar bomb hits directly where it's supposed to he follows it up with a second one that hits right in the exact same spot and you can see the arms of the excavator stop working it's unclear um if there was casualties on on this situation but we're watching the rest of this video that Kasam released this is a fighter saying we're here we're in the field this is is ainel Kasam brigades we're attacking Israeli forces in the narim corridor south of Gaza City telling it like it is he's holding an 81 millimeter mortar kasan makes three types of mortars 120 millimeters 81 millimeters and uh 61 82 millim and 61 millim um 120 80 and are the three sizes and so these ones that are small in their hands are the 60 mm and they work in teams in units of at least two often one who will hold the camera and then they'll rotate out they fire a few shots and then they they leave the area because uh counter battery fired the Israelis are tracking with radar with drones um and are looking for these positions we're watching six cassam mortar positions six Kasam mortar teams operating at targeting the same spot along the nits Rim Corridor not just firing randomly along the corridor this is six units concentrated um on a single Target um and that comes from the surveillance uh intelligence reconnaissance and surveillance and you can see the fighter Escape there if we go to the next one tomorrow we can just I highlighted this um because we haven't actually seen the mortar team's exit but but if you watch the way this guy exits and if you ever saw those videos of the kids in Gaza who do parkour uh he just so smoothly goes over that wall uh and exits and of course any return fire then uh you might lose your mortar uh launcher but watch him go over the fence here yoink and he's gone um so that was just I wanted to show you that because we haven't actually seen the way that they exit these mortar scenes um but he's showing us that they exit the scene and leave behind the mortar um and then go back and get it later when it's safer um and that's what when you read in the field reports uh that the fighter returned to their base safely that's what they're talking about there these are Fighters are preserving their lives these are not martyrdom missions um and these Fighters have been doing this all throughout the war um and their skills of these of these mortar teams were demonstrated in that first clip that I showed you that it land the uh shot landed exactly where it was supposed to um in an for an area weapon that has a radius of up to 30 Metter of a Kill Zone um so the counter battery fire is what they're trying to get out of the way from um to uh to get out of the way from the Israeli response if we go to number 12 um this is the rajim 114 mm launcher this is the first time they've shown us the 14 mm um artillery shell the rocket artillery um and so he's uh the fighter this is a cassan brigades video uh another one and this fighter is attaching the fuse on the front of this weapon he's showing us U how it's put together you can clearly see that these are brand new um these are brand new 114 millimeter rounds he's using his multimeter here to check the wires um this is a three launcher um possibly because it was destroyed um and they're using you can launch these Rockets without you can launch these systems without um The Tubes um they're not as accurate without the tubes but when by weighing down on what you see the bags weighing down on them uh makes the the launcher stable for the moment that the uh that the shell is launched out of it rocket this this is uh you can see the fighter here using the controller because what he's doing here is he's setting the timer on these Rockets we've seen this uh multiple times where the fighters say um we saw one from s kuds where they said at 900m tonight we're going to launch rockets at Tel Aviv um so the Israelis know that they're coming the Israelis watch the launch and then hit the launch site and the fighters are long gone because they set we'll just watch this one more time they they the fighters are setting a timer on these Rockets um at any point in the day going when it's safe setting the timers although we took the audio out of this video but you can hear the Drone buzzing overhead in this video as you can hear it in all of them you heard it in Norah's news reports um from any um journalists on the ground it's constant drones overhead the Hermes drones that Hezbollah has been Downing in the north um but we can see there the rocket launchers are aimed at slightly different angles so that the um so that the Iron Dome can't pick um the consistent trajectory it has to recalibrate for each rocket um so that is a way of working around the Iron Dome system um and then we're going to watch you'll see the controller here that's coming up he's going to show you the controller that Kasam has built the controller uh and and made many of these controllers this is the first time we've seen this you can see it connected to a battery there um for the launch and that's that device is where he's setting the time you can see the cassam Bri Gades logo there and then you saw that was in the middle of the day this is clearly later on in the day when the Rockets are launched so it essentially gives the fighters like almost like a superpower because they can set the timer on these rockets and they can be long gone from the site where they're launched from um and carry on safely uh in throughout the war um and that's that's those are significant developments if we look at number 13 we're going to see uh 107 mm rocket this is the more common rocket this is a Chinese uh rocket artillery system and Hezbollah and Kasam have both shown how to use this system with improvised launchers and that has foiled um the counter battery fire that's looking for the metal structure when it's tracking uh the fire and so that was something that uh the Americans talked about in Iraq because the Iraqi started using it um in Iraq after Hezbollah used it in the 2006 War rather than having fixed um rather than having fixed launchers of metal that can be picked up um on radar and with heat uh tracking um they fire off makeshift Launchers from a rivered using uh wooden tubes using a staircase um using the railing of a staircase just to have it be stable um and I'm just going to show you one more thing because you can see on his launch you could see that Kasam launcher the uh controller that he's using for launches they're putting the sticks over top because the timer is set for multiple hours from now um we we can see his controller there and after this rocket yeah so you can see his controller there it says version three um and it's a play on words it's a play on the Arabic words um for iron piece um um but it's actually more of of of a an enforcer of piece so it's actually like iron uh iron piece maker or iron piece Creator or iron piece enforcer um so it's a play on the Iron Dome um and saying that these controllers are to defeat the Iron Dome because they have a timing system you can see the multiple um the multiple dials allow you to set the rockets for different times um and the number of rockets and the number of time uh in between them can be set on this device and on this device on this controller Kasam has a play on words for uh the iron Peacemaker um to defeat the Iron Dome and interestingly the Israelis yesterday in the time between hitting that base and today there's been more than 15 regime attacks on uh Israeli forces and yes yesterday the Israelis because none no Iron Dome worked during that uh um operation that I just showed you that had 14 casualties we saw no Iron Dome you would have seen the Iron Dome go up um in the solders footage and you don't see that you don't see it on the Palestinian footage either um so there was none in there they took 14 casualties yesterday the IDF nobody asked them but they admitted that yesterday um they were bragging about it they said that the Iron Dome shot down five of 12 rockets that were launched from this resumed system on their base so the IDF is bragging about five out of 12 Rockets being shot down so they lost the engagement seven to five and are bragging about their billion doll Iron Dome system that the United States has helped them for a decade or more uh put into place and the Palestinians are defeating that system and destroying their soldiers concentrations using Gaza built 114 mm rockets and a rume uh multiple launch rocket artillery system that has a controller called the iron Peacemaker so I just I just wanted to bring that that screenshot uh of that moment that you could see they in their videos they go by these things really quickly but if you uh if you spend way too much time watching them you can break down these details as as I do and so I just want to show you those are the Rockets from uh from Gaza and let's look at number 14 here tomorrow because Hezbollah sort of like the big brother that they are the day after the multiple launch uh rocket was shown in Gaza Hezbollah showed us their multiple launch rocket this is a 40 launcher grad rocket system that is a truck-mounted system and we're watching it here for people listening we're watching them fire 40 rockets in a plume of smoke buried in the trees they've driven their truck into the tree line and they're firing it from the truck bed a 40 rocket launcher at kirat Shimona which is the northernmost uh City in uh in Northern Israel and this is just a clue this is a clue from Hezbollah that they have these systems that they haven't shown us these yet uh these systems can reach deep into Israel and they have many more that are much more sophisticated we're watching a a Rockets that cannot be that's too many Rockets to be intercepted by the Iron Dome and here we're seeing them use it in conjunction with a second system that's a 21 rocket launcher these rockets that they're launching are 122 millimeter grad Rockets um you know in the north they just call um excuse me they just call all these rockets catas in Lebanon Rockets like this that come out of Gaza they call them Kasam Rockets just in the vernacular um but you can see that Hezbollah had has shown us this um they've shown us it before but this in conjunction with the uh Palestinians showing their indigenously made um 15 launcher hasbo reminded us all that they have a 40 launcher so you can see it there 40 launches and you can see if you look below I believe you seeing a truck that it's a truck uh a truck truck mounted truck launched U missile barrage that came from the north um there's more Hezbollah will bring you next week U some more of the Hezbollah attacks I wanted to keep the focus on Gaza uh for this week um but there's been many attacks uh if anything more attacks from Hezbollah in the north of late than um than normal which are consistent very high number um you know 12 to 15 every single day qualitative response qualitative attacks um there was multiple drone attacks used um this week so we'll cover that on the show next week thanks for watching this video please subscribe to our YouTube channel hit like leave a comment these engagements help us with the YouTube
