According to Alrabiya ** on December 9**, citing information from 24 Press TV, the Israeli army lost five brave soldiers in the fierce fighting in the Gaza Strip. Among them, General Gadi Eisenkot, former Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army and now Minister of War, tragically lost his nephew, who died heroically on the battlefields of Gaza. It is worth noting that just before that, the Israeli army announced that General Gadi Eisenkot's own son had also died in Gaza.
Israel officially announced that the death toll in the Gaza Strip has risen to 102 since the start of the ground operation, while the army's ** number has reached 423 since the start of the war on October 7. At the same time, Israeli advisers revealed that during the Gaza war, the Israeli army managed to destroy at least 7,000 Palestinian Hamas militants.
Although it seems that the Israeli army has a clear advantage over 423 men with 7,000 men, the report of the newspaper Novaya Izvestia raises doubts, pointing out that the Israeli army is also quite serious. This shows that behind the victory is a heavy price.
Exclusive Revelation: Izvestia has even more alarming information that more than 100,000 Israeli soldiers have been engaged in fierce fighting in the Gaza Strip. According to reports, more than 60 days have passed since the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on October 7, and the Israeli army's **rate has reached 60 per day, and the number has reached 5,000. Sadly, 58 per cent of those injured suffered serious injuries to their hands and feet, 12 per cent to their internal organs, and at least 2,000 of them were recorded as "disabled", and at least 100 were blind.
According to the Israeli Ministry of Defense**, an average of 60 Israeli military personnel are injured every day, and most of them are critically injured. Limous Luria, head of the ** department of the Ministry of Defense, said in an interview: "We have never experienced such a situation before. More than 58% of the casualties we receive have suffered serious injuries to their hands and feet that require amputation. ”
The Israeli army's offensive has also brought a serious humanitarian crisis to the Gaza Strip. According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip have resulted in a death toll of 17,700 people, mostly women and children, since October 7. In addition, 48,780 people were injured, with 210 dead and 2,300 injured in the last few hours alone. The humanitarian crisis has been exacerbated by Israel's blockade of hospitals in Gaza, leaving a large number of wounded awaiting death in the northern Gaza Strip.
It is worth noting that both Israel and Palestine have suffered greatly, yet the United States has vetoed the UN proposal for a ceasefire between the two sides and refused to let Israel stop the conflict. Last Friday, the United Nations Security Council introduced a draft resolution calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which was supported by at least 97 United Nations member states, and 13 other members of the Security Council voted in favor but failed to pass because the United States exercised its veto.
Commenting on the U.S. veto proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza, Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurturmush said: "From now on, the United States will have its hands stained in the blood of every Palestinian victim." For his part, Mahmoud Abbas accused the United States of using the veto and condemned the United States' position as aggressive and immoral, arguing that Washington is responsible for the blood of Palestinian children, women and the elderly in the Gaza Strip.
As of December 9, the Israeli Defense Ministry senior ** revealed to Israeli News ** Axios that Israeli forces have entered the city center of Khan Younis, the largest city in the southern Gaza Strip, and heavy fighting is expected to last 3-4 weeks. This means that more Israeli soldiers may be killed in the Gaza Strip.
