This raises the number of killed Israeli soldiers to 535 since the start of the start of Operation al-Aqsa Flood, with 200 killed in action since the start of the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip on October 27.
Israeli media outlet Yedioth Ahronoth reported, citing the Israeli occupation's Ministry of Health, that since October 7, 2023, and the start of the Israeli occupation's incursion into the Gaza Strip, about 405 occupation soldiers suffering serious injuries have been transported to hospitals across occupied Palestine.
According to Ynet, around 13,572 Israeli occupation soldiers and settlers have actually been transported to hospitals since the launch of Operation Al Aqsa Flood. This number included those injured in the war in Gaza and at the northern front with Lebanon, according to Israeli media.
The Israeli occupation's Health Ministry further claimed that as of Monday, around 233 occupation soldiers are currently receiving treatment in hospitals, with 48 of them being described as being "in serious condition".
Israeli media had formerly contradicted the official reports made by the Israeli occupation government, revealing that the number of injured differed from what had been disclosed.
It is noteworthy that the resistance broadcasts videos that show that the real number of IOF casualties is much larger than what is being admitted publicly by the occupation.
