Al-Yassin 105 : A Story of Challenge and Achievement in the Shadow of Siege

Throughout the struggle between the occupier and the Palestinian resistance, the occupier and its supporters from the unjust global system endeavored to maintain a significant superiority in military capabilities, advanced and very advanced weapons, financial support, and military expertise, in contrast to depriving the Palestinian of building any form of strength or even granting them the right to confront the arrogance of the occupier and to counter any form of its aggression and crimes.

However, truth, faith, and determination were always present among Palestinians and did not leave the generations throughout the years of struggle with the occupier, and on all fronts including the military combat front, specifically confronting the enemy's tanks and vehicles that its soldiers were long fortified in. However, the Palestinian resistance achieved a significant and tangible success in confronting those vehicles and dispelling the enemy's illusion of protecting its soldiers, turning those machines into mobile coffins that transport the enemy's soldiers to inevitable death.

With the outbreak of the Al-Aqsa Intifada in 2000, the zionist occupation thrust tanks and armored vehicles into the hearts of cities and camps in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and the resistance had only light rifles that could not confront those armors in any way. The resistance began its journey in facing these tanks, initially with large explosive devices buried in the enemy's expected paths.

These attempts were successful, but the difficulty of maneuvering with those devices remained a problem, due to their size, weight, and the large amounts of explosives consumed in a time when those materials were scarce, as well as the need to plant them in the ground under complex security conditions to ensure they were not discovered by the enemy. From here, a long path began in an attempt to develop other weapons within the available capabilities and local raw materials.

The Initial Nucleus
The year 2002 witnessed the first attempts to manufacture anti-armor shells and bore the name (Al-Bana - Al-Battar) as well as side bombs, but the challenge of penetration and destruction remained due to the enemy's improvement and development of its vehicle armoring and defensive systems. In contrast, Al-Qassam Brigades continued its efforts, and its engineers managed in 2004 to manufacture the Yassin shell and launcher (P2), a version of the Russian-made P2-RPG, thus the Brigades achieved a relative abundance of weapons and ammunition. Yet, the challenge of penetration and destruction was not solved. In the same year, very few Russian P7-RPG launchers entered Gaza Strip at very high prices, reaching $30,000 for a launcher and a shell, passing through complex stages and overcoming many barriers with difficulty.

As the work of Al-Qassam Brigades and its military apparatus developed, the Brigades worked on dividing their forces into specialties, with the anti-armor specialty being one of the most prominent and important. With the liberation of Gaza Strip from the zionist occupation forces and the removal of the settlements in 2005, the supply situation improved, reflecting on the general development of the Palestinian resistance capabilities and the military manufacturing development of Al-Qassam Brigades specifically.

In 2007, quantities of weapons entered Gaza Strip, including P7-RPG, in abundant quantities, leading to the phasing out of the Yassin launcher, as well as other types of long-range guided anti-armor weapons such as Fagot, Kornet, Konkurs, and others. Within the framework of preparation and training, the Brigades succeeded in training a number of fighters on these weapons outside occupied Palestine, thus enhancing the anti-armor specialty within Al-Qassam with expertise and equipment.

🟢 Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades (2/3):

A Qualitative Leap
In 2014, within the lessons learned from the Battle of Al-Asf Al-Maakoul, the recommendation was to produce an effective anti-armor weapon against enemy vehicles and armored vehicles like (Merkava 4, the Namer carrier, the armored D9 bulldozer, and others) and in response to this recommendation, the research and development teams of engineers and cadres in the military manufacturing units of Al-Qassam Brigades worked diligently and prepared studies on the possibility of achieving this, especially since this type of science requires high precision in measurements, materials, and alloys.

As a result of sincere efforts, creative minds, and a will that defied the impossible and dug into the rock, after dozens of attempts and experiments in the years 2015-2016-2017, the Al-Yassin 105 anti-armor shell entered production in 2018, as well as the anti-fortification and anti-personnel Al-Yassin shells, in addition to guerilla action devices.

This was a complete innovation attributed to the engineers of Al-Qassam from scratch until the successful and powerful launch of the shell and its continuation until reaching its target, with the ability to penetrate armor at a distance ranging between 60-100 cm in the body of the tank and the armored vehicle.

In parallel with this development in military manufacturing, the Brigades worked on training armor snipers to confront the vehicles and armored vehicles of the occupation army. This path included a detailed study of the Merkava tank and other vehicles of the occupation army, identifying their weaknesses and operational mechanisms and tactics, as well as building models that accurately mimic those vehicles in terms of size and shape, and designing shooting simulators to train the fighters on various types of shooting—fixed, moving, close, and long-range—and also training on maneuvering with anti-armor weapons in the field.

Thus, an important stage in the development of preparation and readiness within the ranks of Al-Qassam Brigades was completed, summarizing Al-Qassam's readiness to fight against the enemy's armor and fortifications.

Yassin 105 and the Flood
With the outbreak of the Al-Aqsa Flood battle on October 7, 2023, the Brigades announced the entry of the Yassin 105 anti-armor shell and the Yassin 105 TBG anti-fortification and anti-personnel shells into service, threatening the enemy that this weapon would play an active role in dispelling its illusions and destroying its vehicles in ground warfare. Indeed, the Yassin 105 shell became a prominent and important icon in the Al-Aqsa Flood battle.

From the first day of the Flood and during the great crossing operation, Al-Qassam fighters used this shell, and its name emerged with the start of the ground battle through Al-Qassam's consecutive announcements about the armor crews and elite forces confronting the enemy's vehicles and tanks, foremost among them the Merkava 4 BAZ tank, which the occupier had always boasted about and equipped with the most powerful weapons, defensive systems, and armoring against guided missiles, with the production cost of a single tank reaching about $6 million, divided between $3 million for the body and armor of the tank, $1 million for the cannon system, and $2 million for the rest of the devices and systems installed on this tank. In contrast, the production cost of a single Yassin 105 shell did not exceed $500.

But it was the fighting will of the Palestinian fighter and the spirit of martyrdom that were clearly and powerfully present in the battlefields where the fighters advanced towards convoys and gatherings of tanks despite the violent and insane aerial bombardment, drones, and artillery shelling based on the scorched earth policy, showing dozens of video clips that documented those heroic battles in which the fighters sought those vehicles to hit them in their strongholds and disable or destroy them, killing and injuring those inside them from the enemy's soldiers and mercenaries.

🟢 Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades (3/3):

In a tally published for the first time—up to the preparation of this report—Al-Qassam fighters successfully disabled and destroyed more than 1,108 vehicles, including 962 tanks, 55 troop carriers, 74 bulldozers, 3 excavators, and 14 military jeeps, resulting in the killing and injuring of a large number of the enemy's officers, soldiers, and mercenaries inside those tanks and vehicles, some of whom burned inside them and others were killed after their vehicles were crushed by aircraft, due to the inability of the rescue forces to pull them out.

Heroic battles and direct clashes of Al-Qassam fighters with the enemy's vehicles that were smashed and destroyed by a qualitative weapon manufactured inside a besieged and depleted Strip for more than 16 years, yet, the help and success of Allah were with this group of fighters, marking with this blessed national achievement a new page in the history of the Palestinian people's jihad and resistance.

🇾🇪 Ansarallah Commander, Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr El-Din Al-Houthi's speech today, February 8, 2024 (1/2):

The zionist enemy, with British and American participation, is preparing to target Rafah in order to inflict a greater catastrophe on the displaced people and the locals there.

American and British reconnaissance planes are playing a key role in preparation for targeting Rafah.

The United Nations Security Council has become the "Security Council of the Arrogant," now protecting the Americans and "israelis."

The Palestinian people, the more they accumulate effort, jihad, and sacrifice with their significant oppression, the closer they get to divine victory.

One of the signs of failure for the "israeli" army is forcing them to increase the duration of mandatory and voluntary service.

Americans estimate that the "israeli" army needs at least 5 years to repair its losses from the strike on October 7, not including subsequent losses.

The enemy's move towards negotiations is a clear sign of despair for both the "israeli" and the American.

The "israeli" enemy is accustomed to swift wars, and the exhaustion suffered by its army is evident in the withdrawal of military brigades for reformation.

Hezbollah's front in Lebanon has a significant impact in engaging the enemy, tormenting its forces, and forcing hundreds of thousands of Zionists to flee.

The Iraqi front is supportive and serious, targeting the "israeli" and American enemy and making sacrifices.

Due to the effectiveness of the Iraqi front, the American has escalated its confrontation and targeted its dear mujahideen leaders.

The Yemeni front continues to target the enemy towards Palestine and in its naval operations until the aggression and siege on Gaza are stopped.

This week, we targeted the enemy in Um Al-Rashrash "Eilat," and it is no longer safe as the enemy hoped, with its port disrupted. Zionists in Um Al-Rashrash are in a state of continuous anxiety and fear, and the economic situation there has been clearly affected.

Our operations continued this week to the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and ship movement linked to "israel" is almost non-existent.

As for "israeli" ships, their movement has completely stopped from Bab al-Mandab through the Red Sea, which is a real achievement and victory.

The enemy relied on rented ships to carry its goods, and targeting them has made the situation difficult for it.

🇾🇪 Ansarallah Commander, Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr El-Din Al-Houthi's speech today, February 8, 2024 (2/2):

This week there were five operations, including a major one where the American said the clash lasted for 14 hours.

For the first time since World War II, the American faces such a predicament that its ships and warships are targeted.

British and American strikes on our country this week reached 86 strikes and have absolutely no effect on reducing our country's capabilities.

American talk of strikes affecting our military capabilities is merely entertainment and to save some face.

Americans, from the president to army leaders, admit their inability to prevent Yemeni strikes on ships associated with "israel."

Our operations will continue as long as the aggression and siege on Gaza continue.

Our military capabilities are developing at an accelerated pace and in a distinguished manner.

If the last dose for the British ship that burned from night to night was not enough, more doses could be directed at it.

There is no benefit for the American or British from aggression on our country, the only worthwhile solution is the entry of food and medicine to the people of Gaza and stopping the genocide crimes.

We advise the American and British to have a positive stance towards Hamas's response to the proposals and in the framework of diplomatic efforts undertaken by the states of Qatar and Egypt.

I call on you, our dear people, to come out in a massive and honorable million-man march that angers the enemies and expresses steadfastness in the position.

We will not leave the arenas as long as Palestinian blood is spilled and the tears of the bereaved and orphans are shed.

We will continue our stance with the launch of ballistic, cruise missiles, drones, and mobilization activities will continue and expand.

The voice of our people will remain loud and thunderous, and their stance will continue because they are a people who say and do in response to Allah and their jihad in His cause.

To the Palestinian people and their fighters: [We are] with you until victory in words and and in deed, and we are confident of victory and the outcome for the righteous.
⚪️ Mujahideen Brigades:

Despite the complex security situation in Gaza, a voice message from the Secretary-General, the fighter Dr. As'ad Abu Sharia "Abu Al-Sheikh," Secretary-General of the Palestinian Mujahideen Movement and its military wing, the Mujahideen Brigades, will be broadcast shortly on the occasion of the 24th anniversary of the Palestinian Mujahideen Movement.

🔴 Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades:

Aspects of the targeting by the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades of enemy positions and gatherings east of Gaza and Jabalia with rocket barrages and heavy-caliber mortar shells in response to the occupation's crimes against our people

Al-Aqsa Flood.
In honor of principled refusal, steadfastness, and those who are imprisoned and martyred on the path of liberation.

Today, we commemorate the first year since the martyrdom of three of the lion guards of Nablus.

The martyred leader Mohammed Al-Dakhil.
The martyred leader Adham Mabrouka.
The martyred leader Ashraf Mubaslat.

Our brave heroes were martyred by the bullets of the cowardly occupation forces in coordination with the traitorous comprador, the so-called Palestinian Authority, who handed intel on their location after an earlier failed assassination attempt of the martyr Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi that same day in the early hours of February 8th, 2022. Over 90 bullets were fired at their car that day, in an unforgettable scene of zionist brutality and cowardice.

It was later revealed that they were founding members of the Lions’ Den and were instrumental during its infancy. Sons of the Old City of Nablus, they grew up in the footsteps of the martyrs, carrying out operation after operation and defending every invasion of the camp. They were a nightmare for the enemy.

Their martyrdom set fire to the land underneath the feet of the zionist occupiers across all of Palestine. A nation and a people rose in honor of its martyrs; thousands committed their lives to our righteous cause by picking up the rifle and pointing it towards the enemy, and did so following in the footsteps of those before them, to victory or martyrdom.

In the words of the martyr Basil Al-Araj, "Either we resist or we wait for annihilation."

A martyr rises, and, in their honor, a thousand others stand ready to continue marching on the path they paved.

We witness their spirits alive today, beating in hearts of the victorious resistance of Nablus, with martyr Al-Mansour Al-Jabbar carrying out an operation at one of the city's colonial checkpoints. They sat, as they did together with Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi, prepared to defend their land by any means necessary, guardians in their lifetimes and in martyrdom.

Glory to the eternal martyrs.
The resistant martyrs of Jenin and Nablus always slept with their weapons by their sides. The life of a resistance fighter is not an easy one; these men decided to resist, decided to leave their family homes, and decided to accept martyrdom as their fate. Fighters of the Jenin Brigade, Nablus Brigade, or Lions' Den, in order to protect their families, leave home; they live with their comrades-in-arms, often in decrepit conditions with just a bed, their weapon, and food by their side, ready to engage in combat at any moment. The life of a resistance fighter is one of sacrifice and heroism. Glory to them, and may they find peace in their eternal sleep.

The martyrs Adham Mabrouka "Al-Shishani", Ahmed Al-Saadi, Wadie Al-Houh, Jamil Al-Almouri, Nour Jarrar, Mohammed Al-Saadi "Abu Al-Ayman".
