The Al-Yassin 105 (Arabic: الياسين 105) is an anti-armor missile developed by Hamas. It is the first anti-armor missile developed by Hamas and was first deployed in 2023.[1] It was named after the spiritual leader of Hamas, Ahmed Yassin.

The shell is primarily used by the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, and was used for the first time in the Israel–Hamas war.[2]
