Result= "Palestinian victory"?

Is there any RS saying that the result of this battle was a "Palestinian victory"? Originally, this article said the result was "Israeli withdrawal", which is consistent with other articles about battles during this war. (e.g. Siege of Khan Yunis, Battle of Shuja'iyya (2023), Battle of Beit Hanoun, Hamad City incursion). the provided citation does not call it a "victory".
