This dramatic footage from June shows that intense fighting continues in the Gaza Strip, even as international mediators continue to push for a truce.

The IDF offensive in Rafah aims to eliminate the “remaining Hamas battalions” in the south. But this month also saw an assault on the central city of Deir El-Balah, while in the north Israel continues to trade blows with Hezbollah over the Lebanese border.

Footage released by the military wing of Hamas shows that they are still limited to guerilla tactics.

Mortars, sniper rifles and RPGs are used to strike isolated Israeli troops and vehicles.

But Hamas has also made use of booby-trapped buildings, like this one in Rafah.

The IDF takes advantage of air superiority where possible to eliminate threats.

The Israelis are also prepared to take more risks to reclaim hostages.

A recent raid on Nuseirat saw the return of four captives,but reportedly resulted in the death of 274 Palestinians, many of them women and children.
