The Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, the armed wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, announced several resistance operations on November 5, 2008, coming on the heels of the occupier's murderous attack upon Gaza.

At 7:30 AM, AAMB fired two Sumoud rockets at Sderot, and also fired three mortar shells at Kfar Azza at 8:00 AM.

AAMB noted that this is part of the continuing response to the occupiers' crimes against our people and the collective response of the resistance to those crimes, stating that the crimes of the occupier will not pass without punishment and that the resistance will continue as long as the occupation remains on our land. AAMB reiterated that it was in full readiness to repeal any Zionist aggression against our people.
