5 soldiers killed in 'incident' in north; 84 injured in 24 hours only
The Israeli Ministry of Health has confirmed that 84 Israeli soldiers have been injured since its last update yesterday, including 38 on the northern front over the past 24 hours.
Israeli media reported today that 5 soldiers were killed and 6 others were injured after a building with occupation forces inside was blown up in South Lebanon.
According to Israeli media, a force from the Israeli army's Maglan unit fell into an ambush by Hezbollah in South Lebanon, with the evacuation operation was carried out with difficulty.
This was preceded by reports from Israeli media about a "tough security incident" in the north, which involved the death and injury of Israeli military personnel in South Lebanon.
Earlier, the Israeli Ministry of Health confirmed that 84 new casualties have been reported since its last update on Tuesday, with 38 cases in the northern region over the past 24 hours. The Ministry also noted that the total number of troops hospitalized in "Israel" since October 10, 2023, has reached 22,482.
Since the last update on November 19, 2024, until 10:00 am, today, a total of 84 new cases have been admitted to Israeli hospitals. Of these, 76 were admitted on Tuesday, an increase from 19 cases reported up until yesterday morning. Additionally, eight cases have been recorded between yesterday morning and 10:00 am today.
The Ministry reported that by 10:13 am on Wednesday, the number of cases admitted to hospitals in the northern region reached 38 in the 24 hours prior.
The injuries were distributed across northern hospitals within the past 24 hours as follows: 13 at Nahariya Hospital, 17 at Ziv Hospital in Safad, three at Rambam Hospital in Haifa, one at Hillel Yaffe Hospital, one at Poriya Hospital, two at Bnei Zion Hospital, and one at the Central Hospital.
Moreover, the Israeli occupation army acknowledged on Wednesday the killing of an Israeli soldier from the Nahshon Battalion of the Kfir Brigade and the injury of the battalion commander, a lieutenant colonel, with serious injuries in battles in the northern Gaza Strip.
Israeli media revealed that the battalion commander was seriously injured during zero-range confrontations with Palestinian Resistance fighters in the suburbs of Jabalia, north of the Gaza Strip.
Israeli occupation forces have confirmed the death of a soldier and the injury of others during confrontations in South Lebanon. Under the "permitted for publication" section, the military stated that the deceased soldier was a first sergeant in the Golani Brigade’s reserves, killed in South Lebanon.
However, despite this official admission, evidence suggests the number of casualties is likely much higher. This is supported by videos released by the Resistance forces’ military media in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, which document higher casualties. These reports highlight "Israel’s" ongoing policy of concealing the full extent of its casualties, both dead and wounded.
Golani soldier killed, 3 wounded in Lebanon drone strike
The Israeli occupation forces confirmed on Tuesday that a soldier was killed and three others were wounded in a drone strike from southern Lebanon as part of the ongoing confrontations at the border area.
The announcement, released under the "permitted for publication" notice, identified the killed soldier as a reservist corporal from the Golani Brigade.
According to Israeli Army Radio, the soldier was killed and three others were seriously wounded when Hezbollah targeted Golani Brigade troops with a drone as they were conducting a logistical supply mission in southern Lebanon.
Earlier reports from Israeli media stated that a soldier was killed and four others were injured, with two in critical condition, following a drone attack launched from Lebanon on an Israeli military position.
In related remarks, Yoali Or, a former deputy commander of the Golani Brigade, acknowledged that the losses inflicted by the Lebanese resistance on the brigade were the heaviest since its founding in 1948.
