The Israeli army announced on Sunday that 14 soldiers of this regime were killed in the conflict with Hamas in the last 24 hours in the Gaza Strip.
In a report, the Zionist Channel 12 described the end of this week (Saturday and Sunday) as the hardest weekend for the Israeli army since the beginning of the war in Gaza due to the death of 14 soldiers.
Netanyahu claimed: “We will continue with all our strength until the end, until victory, to achieve all our goals, which are the destruction of Hamas, the return of our hostages, and ensuring that Gaza will never again be a threat to Israel.”
At the same time, the Zionist army announced that it has lost 152 soldiers since the beginning of the ground battle in Gaza, and the total number of Israeli soldiers who have been killed since the beginning of the Al-Aqsa storm operation has reached 485.
This statement was issued while “Kataib al-Qassam”, the military branch of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), has emphasized that the figures announced by the Israeli army are not real and the number of casualties is much higher than the announced figures.
The casualties of the Israeli army’s ground forces are increasing in the Gaza Strip, while Israel TV (Kan) recently announced in a report that Tel Aviv plans to withdraw its troops from the Gaza Strip in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, the Israeli army will withdraw its soldiers from the Gaza Strip, which has not achieved the goal of the second phase of the operation, which is to return the prisoners in the ground battle.
