TEL AVIV — On Wednesday, Benny Gantz, a member of the Israeli Occupation’s War Cabinet, acknowledged on his X page that Israel’s war on Gaza has inflicted a heavy, painful, and difficult toll on the occupation. He emphasized, “Everyone who falls is a scar on the entire State of Israel, and every such scar is a reminder of the heroism of our warriors.”اضافة اعلان

The Israeli Occupation Forces revealed details of an ambush targeting a colonel officer and soldiers in a Shuja'iya neighborhood battle in the Gaza Strip.

According to the Israeli Occupation Forces, the battle on Tuesday lasted about 3 hours. A force from Battalion 53, part of the Golani Brigade, entered a building complex, falling into an ambush triggered by an explosive device at one of the doors. This resulted in injuries to four soldiers and the loss of contact, suggesting the force may have been captured, Khaberni reported.

The IOF radio reported, "As another force from the 669 Rescue Unit advanced, it faced fire from Hamas fighters, leading to the immediate death of two unit members."

Continuing, the radio stated, "Subsequently, another force from the Golani Brigade, led by Colonel Isaac Ben Bashat, advanced, engaging in fierce clashes that resulted in the colonel's death during the incident." However, some conflicting reports showed that the Israeli announcement came from the northern Gaza Strip, not in its southern part, where the occupation forces had said just days ago that their operations were about to conclude.

The toll of Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) has reached 444 officers and soldiers since October 7.
