The Israeli occupation army admitted on Sunday the death of an Israeli soldier as a result of confrontations with Palestinian Resistance fighters in Gaza, bringing the total of officers and soldiers killed since the start of the invasion of Gaza to 331.

According to the IOF, Sgt. Yonatan Aharon Greenblatt, 21, of the Givati Brigade Shaked Battalion, died on Sunday after succumbing to critical wounds sustained in Rafah last week as a result of an anti-tank projectile that hit a building he was positioned in.

The Israeli occupation forces admitted on Friday that a soldier was killed after he was targeted with an anti-tank projectile while operating a D9 bulldozer in southern Gaza.

Under "cleared for publication", the IOF stated that the soldier was Moti Raveh, a sergeant in the reserves, who worked as an operator of heavy engineering machinery within the Givati Brigade.

This comes as the Palestinian resistance in Gaza continues to confront the occupation forces across multiple fronts, particularly in Khan Younis, Gaza City, and Rafah. For over 290 days, these ongoing battles have exacerbated the Israeli losses, in both personnel and equipment.

An Israeli Security source described on Saturday the Hamas tunnels in the Gaza Strip as resembling a "spider's web."

Speaking to Channel 12, the source revealed that despite extensive efforts, Israeli forces have yet to fully understand or control the network of tunnels used by the Resistance group.

Hamas fighters have effectively used these tunnels to launch surprise attacks, managing to disappear underground and strike simultaneously from multiple locations, the source said, adding that the group uses its tunnels to move forces and logistical equipment throughout Gaza, suggesting that dismantling the network and restoring security would require a prolonged and sustained conflict.
