At least 12 Israeli occupation troops were injured in battles against the Palestinian Resistance in the Gaza Strip in the past day.

The Israeli occupation's military said that 4,284 soldiers and officers were injured in battles since October 7, 2023, 2190 of which were injured during the period coinciding with the Israeli ground invasion of the Gaza Strip. 

Moreover, 689 Israeli troops were killed on different fronts since Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was launched, while 639 were dealt critical injuries during battles and 213 soldiers and officers remain hospitalized. 

Israeli news website Ynet's correspondent, Chen Artzi Sror, pointed to the rising number of deaths and critical injuries among Israeli troops in the past few weeks on the Northern Front and in the Gaza Strip. 

Sror said that the current situation within Israeli communities does not allow the occupation to absorb "thousands of physically and mentally wounded back into the community."

Mounting personnel, systems losses

Israeli personnel losses are mounting in concurrence with equipment and systems losses across all fronts, where at least 500 armored vehicles, including tanks, have been damaged or destroyed since October 7, 2023, according to Maariv. 

It also reported that Israeli occupation forces have consumed much more ammunition than was initially expected in the Israeli military command's plans. 

The newspaper published the report in late June under completely different circumstances. However, the shortages and losses become even more glaring as the Israeli command brings the possibility of all-out war closer by assassinating Hamas leader martyr Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran and Hezbollah commander Fouad Shokor in the Southern Suburbs of Beirut. 

In its report, Maariv underlined that the world is currently witnessing an era of "long wars, without resolutions," saying that it is doubtful that the Israeli stockpile of munitions is sufficient enough to withstand such elongated wars of attrition. Stressing that occupation troops are "physically and mentally tired," the newspaper said that in a war with Lebanon, Israeli forces "will not be at their best."
