Reported combat footage shows Hamas fighters targeting an Israeli Merkava tank and M113 APC during urban fighting in Gaza. The Merkava tank and M113 APC were reportedly engaged with anti-tank weapons from concealed positions inside damaged buildings. If authentic, the footage demonstrates how portable anti-armor weapons continue to threaten even heavily armored vehicles in dense urban combat.

Expert Insight:
Modern urban warfare favors concealed anti-tank teams, where terrain, limited visibility, and short engagement ranges can reduce the advantages of heavy armor.
