An Israel Defense Forces reserve soldier was killed and a senior officer was seriously maimed during fighting in the northern Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about

Strip on Tuesday, the military announced the following morning, bringing Israel’s toll in the ground offensive against Hamas

The slain soldier was named as Sgt. First Class (res.) Roi Sasson, 21, of the Kfir Brigade’s Nahshon Battalion, from the Jerusalem suburb of Mevaseret.
The battalion’s commander, Lt. Col. Yoel Glickman, was seriously maimed in the same incident. According to an initial IDF probe, the two were hit in an exchange of fire with button men in the Beit Lahiya area.
Sasson’s death brought the total number of soldiers, reservists and local security officers killed in fighting since the October 7, 2023, attack to 800.
The announcements came after the IDF said troops had killed over 1,300 terror operatives during an ongoing operation in the nearby Jabalia area of northern Gaza. The operation being carried out by the 162nd Division was launched over a month ago.
More than 1,000 members of Hamas and other terror groups have also been detained, according to the military’s latest estimates released Tuesday, which added that some 100-200 operatives remain in the area.
