Palestinian Resistance fires mortars and injures occupiers

AAMB: Resistance fires mortar shells at military base and injures six occupation soldiers

Five mortar shells fell on a military base inside Nahal Oz settlement on November 28, 2008, causing injury to six occupation soldiers. The Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades announced their responsibility for the shelling at a press conference held at the Ramattan news agency in Gaza City on November 29.

The Brigades said at the news conference that they had launched five 80mm mortar rounds at 9 pm Friday at the Nahal Oz military site, causing direct harm to the military site and injury to six occupation soldiers, including one serious casualty. The Briades stated that this resistance operation is part of our natural response to the occupation and its massacres and crimes against our people, and its continued targeting and killing of our people and our fighters.

The Brigades announced at the conference that they had also launched 80mm mortar shells at a military post east of Bureij. They emphasized that no "calm" would prevent the resistance from responding to the crimes of the occupation, and stated that they will not allow the enemy to massacre our people without a response.
