In this segment from our latest livestream, we talked about the multiple fronts of resistance beyond the battle for Gaza and the role that the media arms of these groups have played in documenting a crucial element of the fight.

In Yemen, Ansarallah released through their media arm video footage of the seizure of what they said was an Israeli-owned ship in the Red Sea.

Ansarallah and the Yemeni Armed Forces have attacked Israel and its allies with missiles and drones several times since the war in Gaza began, including downing a US MQ-9 Reaper drone off the coast of Yemen earlier in the month.

For their part, Hezbollah’s media arm in Lebanon has published more than forty videos in the past six weeks of their fighters hitting Israeli targets in the north, including a video of their heavy warhead Burkan rockets being fired at an Israeli military base.

The defense of Gaza

It is of course Gaza that is the focus of the resistance.

Over the weekend, the Qassam Brigades released a video that was a collection of many of their attacks, beginning with the 7 October surprise attack on Israeli military’s Gaza Division when their fighters burst through Israel’s billion-dollar high-tech border fence and overran Israeli military bases and outposts, capturing equipment, vehicles and dozens of soldiers.
