Channel 12's military correspondent, Nir Dvori, said the Israeli military lost around 600 soldiers (according to official numbers), alongside 3,000 injuries, a number not observed for decades.
Earlier on March 25, the Israeli occupation military confirmed that a Sergeant First Class was killed on March 23 during confrontations with the Palestinian Resistance in Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City.
The military mentioned that the killed troop fought with the 932nd Battalion of the Nahal Brigade.
Israeli political writer, Ben Kesbit said in the meantime, "There is nothing in Gaza, other than Hamas' attempt to return and build its capabilities in areas where the army had retreated", emphasizing that this is something "Israel" has absolutely no control over, according to the Israeli Walla! website.
