The Israeli occupation military confirmed that five of its soldiers were seriously injured during battles with the Palestinian Resistance factions across the Gaza Strip on Sunday and were taken to hospital for treatment.

According to the military's statement, three soldiers — one from the Paratroopers Brigade’s reconnaissance unit, one from the Combat Engineering Corps' Yahalom unit, and a Paratrooper officer — were injured in south Gaza.

The remaining two, from the Combat Engineering Corps’ 601st Battalion, were injured in northern Gaza.

In a related context, a former Israeli officer has revealed that despite complete silence on Israeli media outlets,  there is "total chaos" among the Israeli occupation forces' ranks following months of aggression against Palestinians in the confined Gaza Strip.

Yitzhak Brik disclosed in an interview for the Israeli Maariv newspaper on Saturday that the disorder was particularly regarding the availability of war equipment and logistical services required for war.

Brik divulged that there is "total chaos. Equipment, logistics, food and everything needed to move forward is not working," due to the IOF entrusting private companies.

He detailed how there were "dozens" of Israeli tanks in Gaza that needed repairing and that he attempted to warn Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to no avail, since his cabinet members refused to "hear the truth" and kept Brik away.

He recalled speaking to Netanyahu and alerting him that the IOF were not ready to engage in a full war since there were troops that had not trained for years, along with an extreme shortage of supplies.

According to Maariv, the Israeli ground invasion of Gaza, which went terribly wrong in the first place, was delayed because the leadership was concerned that the Palestinian Resistance was "well-prepared for this scenario."

The IOF have suffered heavy losses in their battles against Palestinian Resistance factions in Gaza, with one of their troops recently killed Saturday, identified as Staff Sergeant Narya Belete in the Givati Brigade.

With the latest announcement, the number of Israeli occupation troops killed since the start of the war on Gaza now stands at 578, including 239 in the ongoing ground invasion of the Strip, as per the Israeli military. But footage of top-tier operations published by the military media of the Palestinian Resistance factions indicates that the losses incurred are much greater than officially declared.
