The Israeli occupation military confirmed that a Sergeant first class was killed Saturday 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.
The announcement brings the total number of Israeli troops killed since the start of the war on Gaza to 595, including 252 since the start of the ground Israeli invasion of the besieged Strip.
On Saturday, al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, said its Resistance fighters bombarded Israeli occupation forces entrenched in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Medical Complex west of Gaza City with mortar shells.
Al-Qassam Brigades reported that its Resistance fighters were able to target a group of Israeli occupation soldiers who had fortified themselves inside a building with a TBG anti-fortification shell, causing several casualties among them.
They also targeted an Israeli military vehicle with an al-Yassin 105 anti-tank shell.
Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades also announced that its fighters shelled an Israeli assembly point, inflicting material and human losses on the raiding forces after they struck them with mortar shells in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Medical Complex.
