Ever since the Palestinian resistance launched Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, the Israeli occupation forces and Israeli settlers have been bumping into walls, left and right, out of confusion and panic.

According to Israeli media, in their panic, settlers drive and refuse to halt at checkpoints, assuming that the soldiers are members of Hamas dressed as the IOF, prompting the latter to open fire, believing that the drivers are Palestinians.

On Sunday, an IOF soldier became suspicious of a settler driving a truck at the “Shtoula” gate opposite the Lebanese village of Aita al-Shaab and opened fire at him when he didn't stop the vehicle. The driver then responded by attacking the IOF, running over five soldiers.

Israeli media reported as well that an IOF soldier committed suicide by shooting himself in the “Ra’im” settlement.

Hitting home at 1,000

Israeli media reported on Sunday that the number of Israeli deaths has risen to 700 and the wounded to 2,000, 350 of whom are in a serious and hopeless condition.

The Israeli media also announced that among those killed is the head of the elite Israeli Multidimensional unit, also known as the Ghost unit, Colonel Roi Levy.

The media also suggested that the death toll is nearing 1,000, pointing out that there are still quite a few settlers missing in addition to an unestimated number of settlers who were transferred to the Gaza Strip.

CNN reported that 44 Israeli occupation soldiers and 30 security officials have been identified among the killed.
