IDF confirms 40 soldiers have been injured in the combat.
The Israeli army announced that another number of Israeli soldiers were injured in the northern borders.
The Israeli army admitted that 40 more of its soldiers were injured on the Lebanese border.
The occupying army also announced that the condition of 4 of these 40 wounded Zionist soldiers is reported to be critical.
Hebrew sources have announced this statistic despite severe censorship, while not mentioning any details and not talking about possible casualties.
A military statement said that five soldiers were in serious condition.
According to military figures, at least 874 soldiers have been injured since Israel expanded its ground operations in the Gaza Strip on Oct. 27.
The Israeli army says 492 soldiers have been killed since the outbreak of the Gaza conflict on Oct. 7.
In response to a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7, Israel launched air and ground attacks on the coastal territory and has since killed at least 20,915 people, most of them women and children.
The onslaught has left Gaza in ruins, with 60% of the enclave’s infrastructure damaged or destroyed and nearly 2 million people displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water, and medicines.
Tel Aviv has vowed to destroy Hamas and ensure the release of all hostages taken during the October attack. Some of them were returned after a temporary truce in November in exchange for some Palestinian prisoners.
