It was also reported that the Israeli occupation forces intensely fired at the driver executing the operation, however, his condition is yet to be known.
The incident occurred just hours following a stabbing operation at the "Mazmoria" checkpoint near Beit Lahm, executed by Ahmad Alyan who was later martyred.
Israeli media reported that two Israeli soldiers had sustained moderate and severe injuries respectively as a result of the operation.
An influx of injuries among Israeli soldiers
Since the start of the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip, the Israeli Soroka Medical Center received 2,346 wounded soldiers, the hospital's spokesperson said on Monday.
Thus far, the hospital is housing 42 wounded people, 13 of whom are in critical condition, the spokesperson said.
The hospital announced that it received, on Thursday alone, 16 wounded soldiers, and a day earlier it announced that it received 12 soldiers wounded in action in Gaza.
The whopping nearly 2,400 figure is exclusive to Soroka, as the head of the Disabled Veterans Organization, Idan Kleiman, told Bloomberg previously that the number of wounded soldiers was likely to reach 20,000 if mental disorders are taken into account.
Israeli Channel 12 revealed earlier that some 3,000 of those wounded in the war on Gaza were classified as "people with permanent disabilities in the army."
