The Israeli occupation forces announced Friday that 600 soldiers and officers have been killed and 3,193 others injured, including 497 seriously injured, since the start of the war on Gaza.

The IOF also admitted that 1,552 soldiers and officers were injured during the ground operation in Gaza.

Earlier, Israeli media outlets had reported on the high number of casualties among the Israeli occupation forces in the battles it is fighting with the Palestinian resistance in the Gaza Strip, which is equivalent to the size of a brigade in the IOF.

The occupation continues to suffer heavy losses in the battles against the resistance, as the Israeli forces are exhausted and are not making any significant progress.

Despite the Israeli forces' tight control over the publication of the real numbers of its casualties as a result of the ground battles in the Gaza Strip in an attempt to hide the extent of its losses, the accurate data and video clips broadcast by the Palestinian resistance show that the losses suffered by the occupation are much greater than what it announces.

Israeli media outlets have circulated footage of several military helicopters transporting casualties from the Gaza Strip to hospitals in occupied Palestine, in what has been described as an "unusual" incident on Friday morning. 

Concurrently, Israeli military reports have revealed that 62 Israeli occupation troops have been wounded in a period ranging from March 21 to March 28, pushing the total number of injuries among occupation forces to 3,160. 

In the last updated form of Israeli troops killed since October 7, 2023, Israeli occupation forces (IOF) admitted to 597 deaths among its members. The total number of casualties (deaths and injuries) admitted by Israeli authorities has reached 3,790.

Since the Israeli occupation launched its ground invasion into the Gaza Strip, 1,523 soldiers and officers were claimed to have been injured. 

Another 28 soldiers and officers were injured last week in unspecified areas of engagement, which may be linked to the operations of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah. 

Israeli media outlets pointed out that the number of casualties equates to an entire brigade of the Israeli military, which consists of 11 regular and active brigades. The extreme reduction in manpower has had clear effects on the Israeli military's structure, as officials have called for at least 14,500 new recruits. The events have also forced further dependence on reserve brigades, costing the Israeli occupation treasury large sums to maintain. 

It is worth noting that thousands of casualties among Israeli troops go unreported when treated in field hospitals.
