The Israeli army announced Tuesday morning that three soldiers, all with the rank of first sergeant, were killed during the fighting that took place Monday in the northern Gaza Strip.
Israeli media reported that a number of soldiers were killed or wounded in a well-planned ambush carried out by the resistance in the Jabalia area in the northern Gaza Strip. The attack was described as "very difficult," with the soldiers' injuries being described as minor to moderate.
Sources reported that an army force inside a building in northern Gaza was targeted by a "Yasin 105" missile, resulting in deaths and injuries.
The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades confirmed in a statement that violent clashes with Israeli occupation forces continued at point-blank range east of Jabalia camp. Its fighters inflicted heavy losses on the Israeli army, while the fighting continues.
Media outlets reported that the evacuation helicopters had difficulty landing due to the intensity of the clashes, and that attempts to evacuate the dead and wounded soldiers were hampered when the evacuation helicopter was hit by an anti-tank missile.
According to official data from the army spokesperson, the number of Israeli soldiers killed since the start of the war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, has reached 861, whose names were officially permitted to be published. The number of soldiers killed in the ground maneuvers in the Gaza Strip, which took place on October 27, 2023, also reached 416.
Israeli soldiers have sustained 5,921 injuries since the start of the war, including 3,582 minor injuries, 1,456 moderate injuries, and 883 severe injuries. During the ground military exercise in the Gaza Strip, 2,687 injuries were recorded, including 1,369 minor injuries, 800 moderate injuries, and 518 severe injuries.
The data indicates that these numbers do not include cases that were routinely postponed and were not the result of operational incidents, or those whose injuries were not determined to be severe. Furthermore, the number of injured patients is variable and reflects the most serious injuries within the overall statistics.
These figures reflect the heavy losses incurred by the Israeli army during the ongoing military operations in the Gaza Strip and surrounding areas.
